Top Videos from Dior – A brand between Haute-Couture & High Fashion Street-Wear
Christin Dior – a brand that stands for French elegance, luxury and design like no other. The fashion house does not only make prêt-à-porter, but also the extremely elaborate haute couture since the beginning of its time. With different designers Dior experienced different epochs and since 1946 has been inspiring the fashion world and especially stars and celebrities, such as Victoria Beckham, supermodels, such as Naomi Campbell, or It girls, such as the Kardashians and Paris Hilton.
History of today’s high-fashion global corporation
In 1946 the then 41-year-old Christian Dior opened his fashion house of the same name in Paris. He learned his unique style from Lucien Lelong and revolutionized the fashion world of the time in just 10 years with his NEW LOOK. The Frenchman quickly enjoyed great success and a few years later launched Miss Dior, the women’s perfume that is still famous today. From the 1950s onwards, Dior began to print his name on his exclusive fashion, accessories and bags and quickly became the outfitter of the Hollywood society. Stores on New York’s 5th Avenue and Paris’ Avenue Montaigne followed and at the same time, with the launch of the first beauty line, the then young Ives Saint Lauren became Christian Dior’s assistant. After Dior’s death, Saint Lauren took over the creative direction of the house, but had to resign after a short time when he was drafted into the military. Over the years, the traditional house still experiences many highs, such as the introduction of new lines, e.g. men’s fashion, but also lows, such as some takeovers and bankruptcies. From 1988 onwards, LVMH slowly took over the company and designers such as Hedi Slimane or John Galliano revolutionized the fashion Dior’s once again. Today, under the creative direction of Maria Grazia Chiuri and Kim Jones and fully owned by LVMH, the company is one of the largest fashion groups in the world. The fashion world and stars love the French label and the designs of the brand are iconic.
