"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"--

"I miei ricordi più belli io devo ancora viverli, il mio passato è ancora molto giovane". Così scriveva Christian Dior nel 1956, nel dare alle stampe questa sua autobiografia. Quasi un anno dopo, però, Dior moriva all'improvviso, e quelle pagine rimasero come la storia di tutta la sua vita. A originarle era stato un bisogno che lo stilista dichiarava sin dalle prime righe: "Esistono due Christian Dior: il Christian Dior pubblico e quello privato". Ed è per dire tutta la verità sul primo Dior, sul grande sarto di avenue Montaigne, che l'altro Christian Dior ha deciso di scrivere un libro di memorie. Proprio sul filo di questa ironica trovata narrativa della doppia identità Dior dipana i ricordi di una vita che ha segnato la storia dell'alta moda del Novecento. La voce narrante è quella del sarto schivo e pignolo, nato nella brumosa Normandia e trapiantato presto a Parigi, dove, dopo aver lasciato gli studi, insegue una vaga vocazione artistica, nel clima vivace della capitale francese. Entrato quasi per caso nella maison di Lucien Lelong, fu dopo la fine della guerra, nell'ottobre del 1946, che Dior fondò la sua casa di moda. È l'inizio di una rivoluzione
