The essential book revealing how Christian Dior’s childhood at Villa Les Rhumbs in Granville shaped his creativity, his couture vision, and the iconic House of Dior.<\/p>\n

The family home in Granville, Normandy, was a haven where Christian Dior’s creative identity first began to unfold. In the 1910s and 1920s, he discovered a love of flowers and gardens in the villa’s grounds and was initiated into the world of art and fashion. The tranquil, nourishing atmosphere of the villa was enriched by the booming, optimistic climate of the Belle \u00c9poque, echoing in the entrepreneurial endeavors of the Dior family and in the town of Granville, which had become a fashionable seaside resort.<\/p>\n

Accompanying the exhibition at the Mus\u00e9e Christian Dior in Granville, this volume traces how Dior’s hometown became fertile ground for his talent and gave rise to the House of Dior. It showcases the links between his childhood garden and the floral-inspired designs; it examines how Granville’s social life-from summer f\u00eates to its carnival-fired his imagination for evening ball gowns; and shows how seaside fashion of the era influenced models like the Grain de sel suit or the Go\u00e9lette ensemble. Featuring rare archives, photography by masters like Richard Avedon, Patrick Demarchelier, and Paolo Roversi, and emblematic creations by successive artistic directors, the book illuminates the origins of Dior and the visionary spirit that continues to guide the House today under creative director Jonathan Anderson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
