"Much has been written about fashion, in all its aspects, but I do not think any couturier has ever before attempted to compile a dictionary on the subject. Of course, it would take volumes to cover the entire field of Fashion, but I have compiled a book which I think is neither too long, so that it becomes tedious, nor too short so that it seems insufficient. I think it should be of great practical use to the women of today." --from the introduction

Christian Dior (1905-1957) was one of the most influential fashion designers of the twentieth century and the founder of the House of Dior. His 1947 debut collection, known as the "New Look," revolutionized postwar fashion and redefined modern elegance with its emphasis on femininity, craftsmanship, and refined tailoring. Though his career lasted just a decade, Dior transformed haute couture and established a global fashion legacy that continues to shape style today. The Little Dictionary of Fashion distills his timeless philosophy of dressing well, offering guidance on elegance, grooming, and personal style from the master couturier himself.
