Designer Spotlight: Christian Dior in the late 1940s

“Simplicity, good taste, and grooming are the three fundamentals of good dressing.” – Christian Dior

After the austere styles of the WW II years, Dior took the fashion industry by storm with his line The New Look. The cut featured rounded shoulders, a cinched waist, and very full skirt. The New Look celebrated ultra-femininity and a return to opulence in women's fashion.

Richard Avadon (American, 1923 - 2004) • The New Look of Dior, Place de la Concorde, Paris, August 1947

Evening coat • Fall/winter 1947–48

Dior styles were often given titles:

Right: Dior's 1947 debut was dubbed the "Bar Suit", it is the most iconic Dior creation.

Left: "Abandon" • 1948-1949

"Mystère" • 1948-1949

Mantua 18th century

Initially banned for its informality by the French court of Louis XIV, the informal style gradually became acceptable as formal dress and remained a popular choice for court attire.

Empress Maria Feodorovna's dresses (or Minnie's closet)

I have already published a post with some of Minnie's dresses. But Minnie was a fashionista. She loved to dress well, and she had to. After all, she was the face of the monarchy in Russia since Alexander III was less visible to the public than she was. She did a great public relations job and made sure she had the tools...dresses by the latest French designers, shoes, hats, fans, and a lot of jewelry. It seems that Sacha did not mind the huge bills.

So I went looking in her closet and pulled out a few outfits to share with you...there are capes, mourning attire, and visiting/dinner/day dresses. I did not get any ballgowns. I will next time. (gcl)
