The Dior Grand Bal collection captures the twirling elegance of a ball gown, brought to life by the Dior Inversé caliber, with its functional oscillating weight positioned on the front of the dial. Much like the structured satin, faille, and taffeta fabrics that grace the sumptuous party dresses in Dior’s couture ateliers, the Grand Bal collection is enriched with golden thread, mesh, silk, feathers, gemstones, and even scarab beetle wings.
Here, technical watchmaking innovation meets femininity. Refined materials and a kaleidoscope of colors evoke the magical balls so cherished by Mr. Dior, inviting the wearer to glide gracefully across the dance floor.
For this year’s Holiday collection, Dior drew inspiration from a theme close to Monsieur Dior’s heart: the circus. The new Dior Grand Bal Cirque de Monsieur Dior dazzles with a mother-of-pearl dial and sparkling diamonds. Its steel bezel is set with 71 brilliant-cut diamonds and framed by a pink mother-of-pearl ring. The translucent purple sapphire crystal caseback is enhanced with pink gold-colored metallization on the stars, creating a mesmerizing effect reminiscent of a festive, starlit evening.
With the Dior Grand Bal Cirque de Monsieur Dior, counting down to midnight becomes not just a moment in time, but a celebration of elegance, magic, and couture artistry.
