Reviewer Permalink
This is an amazing book following the House of Dior. The selection of pictures are phenomenal and the quality of the book itself is fantastic. I have it on my coffee table, and everyone that sees it, picks it up and looks at it for hours. Gorgeous book. Far superior to any other books about Dior that I've come across.

(Hide Review...)  The Best Book about Dior
Reviewer Permalink
"Dior", is simply the best book around that explores the history of this legendary Couture House. It is full of the most beautiful Images and truly shows the luxury of Dior Haute Couture. The book begings with Christian Dior, Master Himself, then goes on to Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Boehm, Gianfranco Ferre, and John Galliano. The Images depict the allure of each crators' masterpeices, and the craftsmanship inside a Dior Haute Couture garment. The cover of the book is stuning on its' own. I'am sure this book will one day be a collectos item!

(Hide Review...)  DIOR
Reviewer Permalink
This is a HUGE book, but I suppose in order to sum up all that is Dior it takes a redwood. This book is exhaustive and it traces the Dior fashion house from the Elegant Mr. Dior to the iconoclast Galliano. I for one love the way Christian Dior made a woman look, his style was revolutionary in many ways, but traditional at the same time. His most famous proteget Yves St. Laurent, pales in comparison to the master, as an innovator and as a designer in general, though Mr. St. Laurent was certainly a great talent in his own right. As for the current work of the house of Dior, to be honest i of course like the coutour that reflects Christian Dior, but some of the more outlandish styles as reflected by in house designer Galliano leaves a bit to be desired, and what is up with his personal look, where Mr. Dior exuded class, Mr. Galliano looks like he's trying out for a Chelsea production of Pirates of Pensance, but I digress. I like for instantance what Tom Ford did for the House of Gucci, but I'm not that please with the direction Galliano has taken Dior, but alas that does not preclude my enjoyment of this fantastic book. A fitting tribute to one of Europes great fashion houses.
