"This version contains much more detailed information that was not
exposed in the first telling, which is why the reader must read the
text rather than think this is just one more glorious coffee table
book featuring the creations of Maison Dior designed by all who
held the reins since day one." —NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS
"The Brooklyn Museum's upcoming Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams
is one of the fall's most anticipated exhibitions, and this
catalogue is a perfect way to bring the show—which features more
than 200 haute couture garments in addition to sketches, videos,
photos, and other items—home with you." —TOWN COUNTRY
"It wouldn’t be a Rizzoli publication if weren’t illustrated with
outstanding illustrations and photographs, and these from artist
Katerina Jebb (shown) and the world’s most famous photographers do
indeed dazzle. . . The book concludes with a terrific portfolio of
photographs from America’s most celebrated masters—including
Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, Bert Stern, Horst, Louise Dahl-Wolfe,
Annie Liebovitz and Deborah Turbeville—who captured celebrated
beauties, top models (from Dovima to Christy Turlington), famous
actresses (Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe, to name just two)
and rock stars (Rihanna) wearing Dior from the 1950s until
today." —MYLITTLEBIRD.COM
