Eight is a recurring number, bringing to mind the fashion house\u2019s date of creation, October 8th, 1946, their first collection called \u201cEn Huit\u201d (\u201chuit\u201d being the French word for \u201ceight\u201d), as well as Paris\u2019 8th arrondissement, location of Dior\u2019s headquarters on the avenue Montaigne.
