Christian Dior Handbags
Christian Dior was born in Granville, France January 21, 1905. Two years after graduation, he served the obligatory 2 years in the French Army. After he got out, he opened an art gallery and was an art dealer from 1928-1931. Christian Dior's fashion design talent started to show during this very sad period of his life. He started to work as a fashion illustrator and then as an assistant designer. But in 1939, the winds of war hit Europe and Christian Dior was one of the many who were deployed by the French Army. After the war, he went back to fashion designing and finally in 1947, he launched the House of Dior and "The New Look." Rounded shoulders, cinched waist and bell skirts created in luxurious fabrics - that was what Christian Dior showed the world in 1947. It was an instant success and assured Dior a place in the annals of fashion history. Christian Dior's career as a top fashion designer only lasted 10 years (he died in 1957). The House of Dior continued to live, first under Yves Saint Laurent, and currently under John Galliano. It is now a member of the LVMH group of companies famous for its luxury goods product lines.
