CHRISTIAN DIOR
In 1946, French designer Christian Dior founded one of the most renowned fashion houses in history. His first collection Corolle, also dubbed ‘New Look’, employed boned bodices, hip padding and corsets which created a distinctive voluptuous and feminine silhouette. The amount of fabric used in each outfit created a backlash after wartime rationing, yet the revolutionary New Look style soon put Paris at the centre of the fashion world post World War II. Today, the house of Christian Dior remains synonymous with high fashion. Circa Vintage's collection includes designs by Marc Bohan and jewellery by Henkel & Grosse and Mitchel Maer.
