About this product

Product Information

A stunning and comprehensive overview of the legendary house of Dior, from its founding in 1947 to today, featuring over 170 collections presented through original catwalk photography In spring 1947, Christian Dior presented the first collection of his newly founded eponymous fashion house. Soon dubbed the "New Look," it grabbed headlines all over the world and turned Dior into one of the most influential brands of all time. After the couturier's untimely death in 1957, Yves Saint Laurent took the helm of the fashion house before being succeeded by Marc Bohan, who was in turn replaced by Gianfranco Ferr in 1989. In 1996, John Galliano was appointed creative director, designing flamboyant collections for a decade, before the arrival of Raf Simon in 2012, who gave the house a newly imagined identity for the 21st century. Maria Grazia Chiuri's arrival in 2017 as the first woman designer in Dior's history also marks the seventieth anniversary of the "New Look." For the first time, every Dior haute couture collection is gathered here in a single, lavishly illustrated volume--providing a unique opportunity to chart the development of one of the world's most famous fashion brands and to discover rarely seen collections. Dior: The Complete Collections opens with a concise history of the house of Dior before exploring the collections themselves, which are organized chronologically. Each new "era" in Dior's history is inaugurated by a brief overview and biography of the new designer, while individual collections are introduced by a short text unveiling their influences and highlights and illustrated with carefully curated catwalk images. A rich reference section, including an extensive index, concludes this definitive publication.

Quick shipping. Decent packaging. Bad condition on the cards. I know the description said used, but there’s a ton of stains and creases that weren’t visible in the photos.

  • Wonderful book

    A must-have. The early clothes were modeled live in the salon, and we are treated to candid photos of models walking through a crowded showroom. The collections are fascinating and the glimpse to an earlier time is very nostalgic. I just wish there were more clothes featured for each collection, especially the earlier ones. There are several celebrities/movie stars in the audiences, and the who's who of the current socialites of the day. Really amazing book. A lot of Dior's original collections would still be fashionable today. Love it, and this is something I will look at again and again. I also love the Chanel volume, but make sure you get the most up-to-date version...

  • Excellent Chronology of the House of Dior

    This is a chronicle of the various designers who succeeded Christian Dior, and their take on the Dior look. There has been plenty published about CD and his original work; this book has numerous photos of the other designer's collections.
