The Little Book of Dior
by Karen Homer
hristian Dior’s spectacular rise to the upper echelons of Parisian haute cou-
Cture is one of the most compelling stories of twentieth-century fashion. An
art gallerist with a contemporary vision, Dior’s debut collection invented the “new
look” silhouette and revolutionized the way women dressed, shopped, and saw
themselves. The House of Dior’s unique style blended the traditional, artisanal
skills of the French fashion house—tailoring and intricate embellishment—with
a modern sensibility. Dior himself helmed the company for only a decade, but it
has flourished under the creative direction of some of the most storied names in
fashion. Currently, Maria Grazia Chiuri steers the brand as it stays true to its iden-
tity—of opulence, femininity, drama, and what Christian Dior called “the com-
plete look,” from garments to perfume and shoes. Little Book of Dior tells the story
of Christian Dior’s early life, the brand’s inception, the triumphs of the couture
collections on the catwalk and the red carpet, and the brand’s journey after the
death of its founder.
