Description :A cross between the seventh art and fashion, this fascinating study traces the fertile relationship between these two fields of creation. While the costumes worn on the screen have brought entire sections of the history of cinema into the workshops of fashion designers, directors and stars very early on solicited the talent and originality of haute couture and ready-to-wear labels. The stylistic, psychological or political motivations of this reciprocity shed light on the moments of grace that lit up the movie theaters and the fashion shows. From Hollywood fashion to the new looks of genre cinema, the volume invites us into the intimacy of emblematic collaborations: Edith Head and Alfred Hitchcock, Christian Dior and Marlene Dietrich, William Travilla and Marilyn Monroe, Hubert de Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn, Ralph Lauren and Robert Redford, Catherine Deneuve and Yves Saint Laurent…

Description :The triumph of an eternal house, seventy years after its spectacular first show.
On February 12, 1947, a young house named after its founder, Christian Dior, presented a spring-summer haute couture collection in a Paris still in the grip of winter cold. The creations were shown in a salon freshly painted in dove gray at 30 Avenue Montaigne, a historic and mythical address. This is the novelty that Dior symbolizes for fashion in general, and for Paris in particular. These codes, this visual language have fascinated the many successors of the designer: Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, but especially John Galliano, and since 2017 Maria Grazia Chiuri. Their task has been, season after season, to find a new voice through the vocabulary of Dior.
