Christian Dior discovered gardening at his childhood home in
Granville, France. Roses profoundly influenced the designer,
especially with his famous New Look aesthetic, where they were
placed beneath the iconic corolla symbol. Published on the occasion
of the exhibition at the Musee Christian Dior in Granville, this
volume explores the rose's importance in Dior's history. The
inspiration for Christian Dior's flowery vision of femininity runs
deep throughout the House's collections; reinventions by subsequent
artistic directors pay homage to Dior's wish to design dresses for
flower-like women. A focus on a new variety of rose, the Rose de
Granville, underscores the perennial significance of the rose
today-from inspiring Haute Couture creations to perfume making.
This fascinating immersion in Dior's universe continues with texts
by experts Eric Pujalet-Plaa, Vincent Leret, and Brigitte Richart,
accompanied by sublime photographs, including shots by the most
acclaimed twentieth-century masters as well as contemporary
photography.
