Fashion

Dior redefined what fashion looked like in the post-war age and demanded glamour, femininity and excess to be the order of the day. His garments spoke of hope and beauty and were crafted with the utmost attention to detail. This beautifully illustrated book charts not only the work of the great man himself, but also those who stood at the helm after him, including the inimitable Yves Saint Laurent, John Galliano and Maria Grazia Chiuri. Dressing everyone from Golden-age Hollywood icons like Grace Kelly and Marlene Dietrich through to fictional fashion fanatic Carrie Bradshaw and music royalty Rihanna, the House of Dior has a dizzying list of devotees. Dior; Style Icon is a wonderful tribute to the romantic, lavish and elaborate designs of a beloved brand.
