They are all signed Dior but are not alike. Immaculate white for Meryl Streep , incandescent red for Juliette Binoche and deep green for Camille Cottin : the three creations seen during the opening ceremony of the 77th edition of the Cannes Film Festival did not fail to stand out. L'OFFICIEL reveals some of the manufacturing secrets hidden behind these three exceptional pieces.

From the series dedicated to Christian Dior ( The New Look , in which she plays Coco Chanel) to a contemporary outfit signed Dior by Maria Grazia Chiuru, there was only one step for Juliette Binoche . Her personalized Haute Couture dress in red silk and with a wide neckline — revealing the shoulders — is inspired by the FRAC dress from winter 1949. To make it, this piece required 30 meters of fabric and 550 hours of work in the workshop.
