DIOR BOOK BY GIANFRANCO FERRE
DESCRIPTION
Of all the great Parisian fashion houses, Dior is perhaps the most famous and prestigious in the world, embodying Christian Dior's sublime vision of femininity. After Yves Saint Laurent and Marc Bohan, both hired by Christian Dior himself, the Italian fashion designer Gianfranco Ferré, a graduate in architecture from the Polytechnic School of Milan, was chosen in 1989 as the new artistic director of the house of Dior.
Ferré's odes to the essence of Christian Dior's style helped cement the house's iconography for a new era. Known for his sense of architecture, his love of feminine silhouettes, the extravagance and opulence of bright colors and sumptuous fabrics, and dynamic draping, Ferré redefined the notion of "Dior" as a style, a code , a spirit.
This beautiful volume presents Gianfranco Ferré's most iconic haute couture creations for Dior, from the Ascot-Cecil Beaton collection from fall-winter 1989 to the Indian Passion collection from fall-winter 1996. Fashion journalist Alexander Fury eloquently explores Ferré's vision for balancing his own taste and that of Christian Dior, reinterpreting Dior's elegant style for the 1990s and a new generation of customers and fashion observers.
Dior by Gianfranco Ferré is the fourth volume in an unprecedented series of books dedicated to each designer of the house of Dior, the ultimate compendium of the most memorable haute couture creations designed and handcrafted by the famous fashion house since its inception . Carefully curated in the world's greatest museums and institutions, these fashion treasures have been lovingly photographed by Laziz Hamani and exclusively compiled for this essential collection.
