Considered one of the most influential figures in contemporary fashion, the designer was born in Rome in 1964. After excelling at the European Institute of Design, she joined <strong>Fendi<\/strong>, and later <strong>Valentino<\/strong>, where she spent seventeen years honing her craft before being appointed head of womenswear at Dior in 2016.<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p data-start=\"928\" data-end=\"1372\">Her career has been free of missteps and defined by several recurring themes. Music, art, ancient Greece, and nature are the threads that together weave a thoughtful, poetic body of work. For her, fashion is a stream of stories and symbols made tangible through fabric and craftsmanship, an subtle balance between conceptual reflection and pragmatism regarding clothing. Her vision fully took shape at <a href=\"https:\/\/numero.com\/en\/fashion\/maria-grazia-chiuri-leaves-dior-throwback-to-7-memorable-shows-blending-art-and-fashion\/\"><strong>Dior<\/strong><\/a>,
