Thames & Hudson - The World According to Christian Dior - Grey

14.99 GBP

Credited with creating some of the most luxurious and spectacular haute couture pieces of all time, Christian Dior became a fashion icon overnight in 1947 with the launch of his ‘New Look’ - sumptuous hourglass silhouettes that provided a welcome tonic to the austerity of wartime. Its wild success, and the global fame that ensued, was built on the designer’s subtle understanding of fashion, couture, style, elegance and women - a perspective and insight best revealed in Dior’s own words, which are gathered here for the first time. Dior was generous with his advice on all things, from style and how to dress, to his insights into the creative process, invaluable for any budding designer. Thames & Hudson. 176 pages.
