An affectionate atlas of Dior scarves at the heart of iconic fashion. A scarf unfurls over the back of the book's dust jacket. The paper inside is as light and soft as silk. From Christian Dior to Maria Grazia Chiuri, the scarves convey the imagination of the creative directors who have shaped the haute couture house. Featuring over 400 designs, primarily taken from the Dior archives, the book traces a remarkable history of fashion. Sophisticated, minimalist, figurative, abstract, luxurious, essential, contemporary and timeless designs for men and women. Dior silk scarves form an incomparable visual repertoire, sure to appeal to any connoisseur of fashion, design and the decorative arts. In addition to this compendium of scarves, enriched with photography portfolios by Brigitte Niedermair and Pol Baril, the book includes content from leading art and fashion historians — Maria Luisa Frisa, Claire Allen-Johnstone, Émilie Hammen, Elda Danese. The foreword is by Maria Grazia Chiuri, Creative Director of Dior Women's collections. English version. Thames & Hudson Publishing. Soft cover. 740 pages. 100% paper
