Kim Jones, the artistic director of Dior Men, has crafted a limited-edition necklace to honor the 40th anniversary of Marc Jacobs‘ brand. This exclusive piece combines the initials “CD” for Christian Dior and “MJ” for Marc Jacobs in a balloon-style design adorned with shimmering crystal pendants.
The necklace reflects the creative synergy between the two designers, who share a history of collaboration and mutual admiration, including their time together at Louis Vuitton.
The design takes inspiration from Marc Jacobs’ charm accessories, blending elements of whimsy and luxury. Priced at €1,500, only 20 pieces will be produced, making this necklace a rare collector’s item.
It will be available in select Dior boutiques worldwide, including flagship stores in Paris, New York, and Tokyo, as well as locations in Miami, Dubai, and Hong Kong. The exclusivity of this piece underscores its celebratory significance.
