I wanted to focus on one particular aspect of Christian Dior’s inspirations: the flowers and how they influenced his perception of fashion, femininity and silhouettes following the Second World War.In this new episode of My Fashion Stories Box Podcast :We will look at Christian Dior’s early life, his connections to nature and how the personality of his mother influenced his love for flowers.We will see how the flowers motifs have been used in Christian Dior’s works, in terms of shapes, names and other embellishments. We will also talk about the 19th century fashion, its influences and relationships with flowers in the designer’s works.We will dive in the perfume universe of Christian Dior.And, finally, we will analyse how Christian Dior’s passion for flowers influenced his successors at the creative direction of the House of Dior.Follow me in this new episode of My Fashion Stories Box Podcast to learn more on Christian Dior’s love affair with flowers and how it influenced the distinctive signature style he gave to his designs. Follow My Fashion Stories Box Podcast on Instagram for visual diaries going along with the episodes.
