For the Spring/Summer 2026 campaign, Dior reframes the image as a process rather than a final statement. Photographer David Sims was invited to interpret Creative Director Jonathan Anderson’s vision, turning the act of taking a picture into a form of study. Shot in both color and black and white, the images read like visual sketches, where meaning emerges through gesture, clothing, and atmosphere.

Set within spare, aristocratic interiors of wood-paneled walls and parquet floors, the cast—Greta Lee, Louis Garrel, Paul Kircher, Kylian Mbappé, and models Laura Kaiser, Sunday Rose, and Saar Mansvelt Beck—are captured at rest or in transition. Neither fully staged nor entirely real, the photographs exist in a quiet space between rehearsal and reality.
