About the Item
Published by Rizzoli, 1st U. S. edition, New York, 1987. Hardback with English text, translated from the original French text.
Monsieur Dior’s ‘New Look’, emerged out of the gloom and austerity of the Second World War, brought a breath of fresh air and classic femininity into the ‘50s fashion world. This spectacular publication reveals both the public and private worlds of Dior. From the intricate hidden structure of the undergarments to delicate embroidery, and chic hats and shoes, this book covers all aspects of the remarkable couturier. Lavishly reproduced colour plates of Dior’s couture and life usher us into his world of elegance and grace. Complemented by beautifully crafted text by celebrated fashion journalist Françoise Giroud, this dazzlingly beautiful book belongs to a true collector’s bookshelf.
