Dior to Stage Pre-Fall/Fall 2027 Runway at Trinity College Dublin

Dior's December show highlights a return to live runway presentations, invokes Irish cultural ties, spotlights the Old Library's renovation

Overview

  • Dior will present its pre-fall/Fall 2027 collection at Trinity College Dublin on Dec. 4, 2026, a date Jonathan Anderson confirmed on Instagram and in statements reported on Wednesday, July 22, 2026.
  • The presentation will take place in the university's Old Library, an 18th-century room that is currently raising funds for its first major renovation in more than 300 years.
  • The event is the first Dior show in Ireland and the first time Anderson has presented a collection in the country, a return he described as personally meaningful because he began his career in Dublin.
  • Anderson's decision restores an in-person December runway for Dior's pre-fall line after the house had used December look books and traveling presentations under the previous creative director.
  • The show's save‑the‑date features a Carmel Snow quote and Anderson's recurring motifs such as a four-leaf clover and a ladybird, signaling a collection framed around Irish heritage and Dior history and likely increasing attention on the library's fundraising and guest list.
