About Dior

Founded in 1946 by Christian Dior at 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris, the house debuted its first collection in February 1947 — a cinched-waist, full-skirted silhouette so striking that Harper's Bazaar editor Carmel Snow dubbed it the "New Look," instantly reviving postwar French fashion.

Dior remains synonymous with romantic, sculpted tailoring, the Lady Dior and Saddle bags, and a legacy of visionary creative directors who have carried its couture heritage into ready-to-wear, accessories, and fragrance.
