Little Book of Dior

Beskrivelse

The rise of Christian Dior in the world of Parisian haute couture is a captivating tale in twentieth-century fashion. Starting as an art gallerist with a contemporary vision, Dior made a groundbreaking impact with his debut collection, introducing the iconic "new look" silhouette that transformed women's fashion, shopping habits, and self-perception. The House of Dior's distinctive style seamlessly blended traditional French fashion craftsmanship, including tailoring and intricate embellishments, with a modern sensibility. Although Dior himself led the company for only ten years, it has thrived under the creative direction of renowned figures in the fashion industry. Currently, Maria Grazia Chiuri guides the brand, ensuring it remains faithful to its core values of opulence, femininity, drama, and what Dior referred to as "the complete look," encompassing garments, perfume, and shoes. The "Little Book of Dior" narrates the story of Christian Dior's early life, the establishment of the brand, the triumphs of its couture collections on both the catwalk and the red carpet, and the brand's journey following the founder's passing.
