Welbeck Book Little Book Of Dior

Little Book of Dior is the beautifully illustrated story of Christian Dior's early life , the inception of the brand, the triumphs of couture collections on the runway and red carpet, and the brand's journey after the death of its founder.

Christian Dior's spectacular rise to the top of the Parisian haute couture scene is one of the most compelling stories in 20th century fashion. An art gallery with a contemporary vision, Dior's first haute couture collection invented the "new look" silhouette and revolutionized the way women dressed, shopped and saw themselves. The unique House of Dior look merged the French fashion house's traditional craftsmanship skills - tailoring and intricate embellishments - with a modern sensibility.

Dior was only led by its founder for a decade, but it has flourished under the creative direction of some of the hottest names in fashion. Today, Maria Grazia Chiuri leads the brand while staying true to her identity of opulence, femininity, drama and creating what Christian Dior called "the complete look," from dresses to perfume and shoes. An exquisitely curated selection of illustrations accompanied by authoritative text by fashion writer Karen Homer presents the journey of a brand known today as the last word in opulence, drama and femininity.
