Its infamous embroidery and monogram print has created feminine silhouettes that have been seen on several red carpets. Its influence in the fashion space has allowed the brand to gain an impressive list of global ambassadors like Natalie Portman, Jennifer Lawrence and Mila Kunis.
Along with its iconic collections, Dior has released many footwear silhouettes over the years.

The set retailed for $1,050.
Dior x 1017 ALX 9SM, 2019
For its spring 2019 collection, the French fashion house worked with Matthew Williams’ 1017 ALX 9SM to reimagine the B23 style. The updated silhouette featured crinkled navy blue nylon uppers accompanied by white stitching and Williams’ utilitarian rollercoaster buckled straps that laid over the lace-up closure. The set was completed with a Dior-branded patch along the translucent sole.
Dior x Stüssy, 2020
Dior and Shawn Stüssy collaborated in 2020 on a collection that included a reimagined version of the B27 and B23.

Dior x Daniel Arsham, 2020
In 2020, Dior partnered with American artist Daniel Arsham on an apparel and footwear collection. The exclusive line included four sneaker styles, including the fashion house’s B23 sneakers in two colorways, one taking on an all-over light blue silhouette while the other was dressed in white accompanied by a newspaper print against the upper. The sneakers retailed for $990.
Dior x Nike, 2020
Unveiled at Dior’s men’s fall 2020 runway show in Miami, the French fashion house and Nike collaborated on a limited-edition Air Jordan 1 High sneaker.

The iconic set hit the retail market that April with only 8,500 pairs for $2,000.
Dior x Peter Doig, 2021
Dior tapped Scottish painter Peter Doig to create a menswear collection for fall 2021. The apparel and footwear collection included a reiteration of the B23 style.

The limited-edition sets retailed for $1,650.
Dior x Kenny Scharf, 2021
Dior and Kenny Scharf joined forces in 2021 to create a collection that includes the painter’s recognizable splatter-like illustrations. The first footwear piece that was reinvented was the B27 Low. The all-white silhouette featured a Dior monogram on the middle panel of the upper, which was layered with colorful graphics that were seen throughout the shoe. The set retailed for $1400.
Dior x Parley of the Oceans, 2022
Dior worked with Parley of the Oceans on a beachwear collection in 2022. The eco-conscious capsule included a range of sustainable apparel and footwear like the B23 sneaker.

The set was completed with a translucent sole and a white lace-up closure.
Dior x Travis Scott, 2022
Dior’s first collaboration with a musician was in 2022 when it worked with Travis Scott to release a range of apparel and footwear inspired by the rapper’s Texan roots. The Cactus Jack collection included the label’s B713 sneaker that was colored in several warm tones and textures including snakeskin and mesh panels. Each set retailed for $1,450.
