Dior enters the Gran Turismo 7 world
By Alex James Taylor | Fashion | 2 August 2022

Rev up Gran Turismo 7 – the franchise’s latest instalment – and you’ll soon be able to race in Kim JonesDior.

Created as part of an exclusive virtual capsule set to be unveiled on 25th August, the pack presents a new playable skin that dresses your driver in a yellow and grey jumpsuit, matching gloves, helmet and reworks of Jones’ signature Diorizon sneakers. Take a closer look and you’ll see the Dior oblique, Christian Dior Atelier Avenue Montaigne and CD motifs all incorporated in the jumpsuit via prints and race patches. Elsewhere, the driver takes the number 47, representing Dior’s first fashion show in 1947.

But what’s a driver without a car? What’s that pulling up? A vintage 60s De Tomaso Mangusta (the same model as that driven by the character Bill in Kill Bill: Volume 2) in golden cream with grey branded racing stripes and a ’47’ decor on the hood. Beaut. You can pick up your ride at the Hagerty Collection Legends car dealer.

Gran Turismo 7 is available to play on PlayStation 4 and PS5 consoles now – the Dior capsule will be downloadable from 25th August.
