Every year. Every significant moment. Every groundbreaking collection. This is the sweeping story of the iconic House of Dior, from its foundation to its future.
When Christian Dior created his "New Look", he would change the story of fashion - and after nearly a century of ravishing gowns, innovative tailoring and breathtaking glamour, Dior remains one of the most influential couture houses in the world.
Dior Year by Year is the exquisitely illustrated history of every single milestone that has made Dior a legendary name. From the founding of the Christian's atelier and creation of the House's most significant pieces to the continuation of a legacy by creative directors including Yves Saint Laurent, Maria Grazia Chiuri, John Galliano and Jonathan Anderson, decades of fashion folklore are covered by fashion writer Karen Homer in this gorgeous guide to the brand. Each year is explored through photographs and illustrations of the key outfits, collections and accessories, and expert deep dives into the themes, shows and personalities that make Dior the couturier of dreams.
