Dior x Parley: The third capsule collection

INITIATIVES

Continuing the commitment to eco-innovation in the fashion industry

 
 
 
 
 

For the third year running, we partnered with Dior on a Beachwear Capsule that reflects our collaborative desire to move towards a more eco-innovative future for fashion. Building on the conscious creations from last year’s capsule, the 2024 line is composed of 100% innovative materials, with 30% of the garments designed using Parley Ocean Plastic®, transforming each garment into a ‘Symbol of Change’ — products that support the environmental cause and Parley’s long-term vision for a Material Revolution.

An ode to the house’s constantly renewed inventiveness, the pieces are refined by a palette of mineral colors, from aqua green to blue tones, contrasted by shades of white or gray. The graphic DIOR Italic signature or the emblematic DIOR Oblique adorn these unique models that include waterproof capes, t-shirts and H-Town Sandals. 

Celebrating the splendor of the marine universe, a coral print motif magnifies a short-sleeved shirt, shorts and even a bucket hat. The season’s bags, including the Dior 8 and the multi-wear reversible tote, are made in lightweight fabrics and promise flexibility, durability as well as functionality for a modern, casual look.

 
 
 
 
 
 

“Fashion has the power to turn everything upside down. And that is exactly what we are continuing to do with Dior — connecting what we know to innovate and change our current culture.”

CYRILL GUTSCH — CEO & FOUNDER, PARLEY
