Reviews / Votes
"[Dior: The New Look Revolution], small and elegant, takes the reader through a beautifully illustrated chronology of the suit, from its 1955 appearance in the iconic photo by Willy Maywald in a Paris winter scene. Illustrations include an 1892 Manet painting of a woman equestrian in a nipped-waist ensemble, along with contemporary versions of coats and dresses that show its continuity. It's a quiet book-and an essential reference for designers and fashion historians. Love it."-TheStyleSaloniste.com
"Celebrate the historical, fashion forward revolution inspired by the legendary Dior, while venturing into his enduring legacy."
