Who is the Dior woman these days? Under Maria Grazia Chiuri, she’s a paid-up member of the globeratti, blending into her surroundings like a chameleon.

Sturdy leather sandals marched alongside more playful feathered versions, while knee-high hiker boots provided a tougher take on pioneer, ahem, festival chic. Thanks to Valentino and Altuzarra, the haute hiker has already been ordained as a staple for fall.
