From the Publisher
A love letter to the cinema from the House of Dior, featuring
legendary screen actresses in signature Dior. Embraced by Hollywood
and the iconic women who are its stars, the fashions of Christian
Dior have been worn by the likes of Marlene Dietrich in Stage
Fright, Lauren Bacall in How to Marry a Millionaire, Ava Gardner,
Marilyn Monroe, Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor and, more recently,
Charlize Theron, Penélope Cruz, and Nicole Kidman. Well before the
successes that were to propel Dior to the forefront of the fashion
world, the master couturier put his talent to work as a costume
designer for the cinema, collaborating with renowned filmmakers and
creating timeless ensembles for legendary actresses. Following the
untimely death of the designer, the House of Dior's involvement
with the cinema continued, from 1958 to the present, with more than
fifty films featuring the stars of the silver screen dressed in
signature Dior. Combining fashion photography and rarely seen and
never before published behind-the-scenes photographs, this
gorgeously produced volume showcases Dior's creations for film and
the movie stars who brought them to life, and is a must for those
who aspire to high style.
