In a statement, Chiuri said she was leaving Dior "delighted to have been given this extraordinary opportunity" and expressed gratitude to her teams and ateliers, stating that "together we have written an impactful chapter of which I am immensely proud."

Chiuri described becoming "extremely fascinated by the story of Mimi Pecci-Blunt" and said the project was "more than a project, it has been a passion."
