In 1947 Christian Dior rocked the fashion world with his New Look,
which dominated postwar fashion and firmly secured the name of his
house in the minds of the public and the fashion industry. He drew
on historical models of femininity, the unique skills of Parisian
haute couture, and a myriad of suppliers to produce stunning
designs that captured a mood of optimism after World War II. Dior
also designed and marketed ready-made luxe lines and broke new
ground by creating and controlling innovative global licensing
agreements for all Dior products, from perfume to stockings,
jewellery, bathing suits, and even men's ties. Newly expanded and
updated to accompany the V&A Exhibition Christian Dior:
Designer of Dreams, this absorbing and beautiful book examines the
seminal years of Christian Dior, 1947-57, from a truly
international perspective.
