Natalie Portman Makes a Powerful Sartorial Statement for Dior Paris Fashion Week Spring 2025 Show Arrival

Natalie Portman was among the bevy of stars and A-list guests who attended Dior’s spring 2025 ready-to-wear collection showcase during Paris Fashion Week on Tuesday. The Oscar-winning actress opted to show her support for the French luxury fashion house by way of her sartorial statement.

For the occasion, Portman wore a selection from Dior’s cruise 2025 collection. The actress wore a coordinated set, featuring a flared miniskirt with silver embellishments that gave the illusion of a chain-mail material.

Portman continued her recreation of the runway look with a black jacket with billowing sleeves, featuring buckles, zippers and a corset-like laced element on the front placket of the piece. Portman completed the look with the same pair of boots featured on the runway, which included silver buckle detailing.

The “Lady in the Lake” actress’ ensemble made its runway debut in June. Dior’s creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri took partial inspiration from Clare Hunter’s “Embroidering Her Truth: Mary Queen of Scots and the Language of Power.”

Pieces from the collection included tartan designs and chain-mail-like material. The collection was showcased at Scotland’s 15th-century Drummond Castle. “It’s poetic, romantic and like a fairy-tale place with all the castles,” Chiuri said of Scotland during a preview at her temporary studio in Edinburgh.

“Think about how the outdoor culture of the country has influenced designers like Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen — to name a few. I wasn’t surprised that Mr. Dior was fascinated by this country and its textiles,” she said.

Portman, who has collaborated with the French luxury fashion house since her first ad campaign in 2011, previously wore two other selections from Dior’s cruise 2025 collection. While attending the Deauville American Film Festival Awards Ceremony red carpet on Sept. 14, Portman wore a sheer puff-sleeve gown from the collection.

At the New York City premiere of her series “Lady in the Lake,” the actress styled a belted minidress look from the collection. Portman is the face of the Miss Dior fragrance and appears in the brand’s campaigns.
