The Rose des Vents collection, originally designed by Victoire de Castellane in 2015, is being reinvented with a series of never-before-seen creations to celebrate its ten-year anniversary.
 
Inspired by the compass rose in Christian Dior’s childhood garden in Granville, this beautiful eight-pointed star – also the founding couturier’s favourite number – became a lasting symbol of his life and work.
 
An iconic odyssey, the Rose des vents line, devised in 2015 by Victoire de Castellane as a tribute
to the history, the essence of the House, is reinvented through a series of unprecedented pieces.
It all began in Granville, Christian Dior’s cherished childhood town, where a compass rose
featured in the garden of his home, the villa Les Rhumbs. From then on, this maritime symbol
– a fabulous eight-pointed star echoing the founding-couturier’s favorite number – guided
his every step, like a thousand-faceted beacon. A mystical legacy that inspired the Artistic Director
of Dior Joaillerie to create priceless keepsakes to be held close.
​
This journey carried by the enchanting whim of winds unfurls through spellbinding stories
– Rose des vents, Rose Céleste, the charms, Étoile des vents – enriched this season with extraordinary
new additions.
The dreamlike Rose des vents adventure continues with the appearance of a ring glowing with the
infinitely graphical spirit of Tribale. A wonderful surprise, a watch designed as a sacred pendulum,
dressed in all the codes of the collection.

Subtle echoes of Monsieur Dior’s passion for the divinatory arts, the Rose Céleste creations
are sublimated by the sun and moon in a hypnotic reversible interplay. These medallions can
now be combined with a necklace, a ring or even a Tribal earring for multiple manners of styles.
Objects of desire embellished with mother-of-pearl and onyx for delightful combinations.
Fusing the House’s emblems with Victoire de Castellane’s abundant aesthetic, captivating charms
add a distinctive aura to Rose des vents pieces. Lily of the valley, hearts, roses, skull and crossbones,
ivy and a bee in flight form an alliance of stones and shimmering nuances, and are revealed
on a necklace, a bracelet, asymmetrical earrings, a brooch, a transformable ring – to be
placed on one or two fingers to evoke the poetic hovering of the bee as it pollinates the rose –
and a majestic plastron*.

​The latter, a veritable statement, brings together all the themes of the
collection and conceals secret gems on the back for even greater refinement and exclusivity.
Spotlighting Dior’s unique heritage, the Étoile des vents chapter features outsanding models
magnified by the founding-couturier’s lucky symbol. A talisman, punctuated with sparkling
diamonds, embellishes a range of irresistibly bold, modern ear cuffs. Multiplied, it dares mix-and-
matching sizes and settings to create elegant constellations, notably with a necklace or earring.
A celebration of all the Rose des vents magic.
*The ring, earring and plastron will be unveiled in July 2025.
