'Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams' curator Florence Müller relates the story of the kindling of Monsieur Dior's love affair with New York in this illuminating video that also explains how the founding couturier would open a couture house in the city in 1948 to cater to the American woman, pieces from which appear in the exhibition on.dior.com/designer-of-dreams running at the Brooklyn Museum until February 20, 2022.
Take an immersive tour through the 'Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams' exhibition on.dior.com/designer-of-dreams running at the Brooklyn Museum in New York, until February 20, 2022. This marks the fifth international stop for the landmark retrospective, with its original record-breaking iteration in Paris. Curated by Florence Müller in collaboration with Matthew Yokobosky, the museum's Senior Curator of Fashion and Material Culture, and designed by scenographer Nathalie Crinière, the exhibition explores the whole history of the House, and the story of the founding couturier himself, from the revolutionary New Look collection of 1947 through the work of each of his successors up to Maria Grazia Chiuri today. Divided into thematic sections such as gardens, Versailles, color and the ateliers, it also focuses on the influence exerted by the United States and especially New York, to which Monsieur Dior sailed several months after his debut, and where he would establish a subsidiary the following year.
