Dior Knitwear

Dior 25Fw jacquard zip cardigan. Purchased for 20,000. Made from white sheep-wool-blend jacquard fabric, with raised Oblique print throughout. Zipper details on the sleeves add a contemporary touch, while the ribbed crew neck provides textural contrast. The source states that imported machinery takes 400 minutes to knit each garment, describes the hole-defect rate as very high, and says production is costly. The yarn is dyed five times, with color loss of up to 15%. The raised surface print is described as matching the original and requiring imported machinery. The sleeve zipper uses custom-molded hardware, and the side zipper is hand-sewn. The high production cost is attributed to these processes. The classic motif is reinterpreted with a modern look.
