Each season, the Dior show carries immense significance as it kicks off Paris Fashion Week, the grand finale of fashion month.

The atmosphere buzzes with anticipation, not only for the start of the week but also for Maria Grazia Chiuri’s latest creations. This year, Chiuri’s Dior Spring/Summer 2025 collection reinterprets archival designs, like the Amazone dress, to explore the connection between body and garment, blending intention and function. With bold contrasts, metallic details, and a nod to the Olympic spirit, the collection highlights modern femininity and celebrates strength through the collaboration with artist SAGG Napoli.
Merritt has garnered a loyal following of over two million across her social platforms, sharing her love for all things wellness, beauty, and, of course, fashion. Ahead, we catch up with Merritt in Paris right before the Dior show to find out what she’s looking forward to most about the show, her must-have Dior beauty products, and her favorite Dior handbag. She also reveals which runway looks caught her eye this season.

HAUTE LIVING: How do you prep for the Dior show?
KELSEY MERRITT: Before getting a good night’s rest, I put on a face mask and put together a mood board for my hair, glam, and photography inspiration. This allows me to feel prepared and have the perfect mindset for the show.
