Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Published 50 years after Christian Dior's New Look of 1947, and accompanying an exhibition at the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, this book presents a chronology of Dior's creations. They are drawn chiefly from the Costume Institute's collections, which include an extensive record of the designer's achievement as recognized by his New York clients of the 1940s and 1950s. Among the illustrations are extravagant evening wear, chic accessories, and details of Dior tailoring, as well as documentary photographs from the Dior Archives, Paris.
Published in conjunction with the exhibition 'Christian Dior,' held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art from December 9, 1996 through March 23, 1997.
