具体描述

Christian Dior rocketed to fame with his first collection in 1947 when the ‘New Look’ took the world by storm. This charming and modest autobiography gives a fascinating and detailed insight into the workings of a great fashion house, while revealing the private man behind the high-profile establishment. It is also a unique portrait of the classic Paris haute couture of the 1950s and offers a rare glimpse behind the scenes. Dior details his childhood in Granville, the family and friends closest to him, his most difficult years and sudden success, as well as his sources of inspiration and creative processes.

用户评价

He views his work as ephemeral architecture, dedicated to the beauty of female body. He thinks true fashion is full of respect, "a charming outward manifestation of an ancient civilization that intends to survive"; rather than the shallow vanities that die fast.

"The most expensive dress in the world is a dress which is a failure. It infuriates the woman who wears it and it is a burden to the man who pays for it." ---每个时代都一样，高强度的工作会使一个人临近奔溃，Dior也不例外，这本书着重记录了他成立Christian Dior的历程，每个时装秀之前的压力与焦虑，都真实地呈现在这本书里。看着他在70年前写的这些字，我不断想起因为高强度的工作而从Dior辞职的Raf Simons。结合Dior在文字里浮现的形象以及他设计的经典衣服，我觉得Raf的设计理念，与Dior先生颇为接近。

Inspired most by the last part, about his own story. His massive success arrived not so early in his life, but before that he had such a vivid, though difficult experience. I found it truly admirable that he has such a passion on fashion and pride on his own design.
