Musée des Arts Décoratifs
The exhibition Christian Dior. Couturier du Rêve presents a selection of over 300 haute couture gowns designed from 1947 to the present, connected by a unifying thread of emotions, life stories, affinities, inspirations, creations, and legacies. Alongside the dresses is the most comprehensive display to date of atelier toiles and fashion photographs, as well as hundreds of documents, including illustrations, sketches, documentary photographs, letters, notes, advertising materials, and fashion accessories such as hats, jewellery, bags, shoes, and perfume bottles.
Reflecting Christian Dior’s passion as an art connoisseur, designs spanning over seventy years interact with a selection of paintings, furniture, and objets d’art, highlighting the ties he forged between couture and all forms of art, and defining the House of Dior’s enduring influence.
