We can only hope there’s a Blackpink reunion while they’re all in town. Saint Laurent held this position until 1960, when he was drafted into the French army. Subsequent creative directors at the House of Dior have included Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, and John Galliano. The morning of February 12, 1947, Mr. Dior presented his first Haute Couture collection in a room filled with journalists from around the world.
The central atrium of our Beaux-Arts Court has been redesigned as an enchanted garden, and a concluding gallery celebrates dresses worn by stars from Grace Kelly to Jennifer Lawrence. Tory Burch is an American lifestyle brand that mixes classic style with a modern point of view. The collection includes ready-to-wear, shoes, handbags, accessories, home and fragrance. He introduced a new silhouette, accentuating the female figure with long flowing skirts, fitted waists and softly rounded shoulders and hips. No designer has ever impacted the fashion world quite like Mr. has. The house of Dior continues its passion in offering women modern beauty and happiness.
The bag, however, is anything but ordinary, and has a few special touches. This is likely not the last Blackpink sighting to be had during PFW. Rosé is in town for the Saint Laurent show, being amongst their global ambassadors. Jennie, aka “Human Chanel,” could likely be attending the Chanel show, having starred in a campaign for their new Coco Neige collection earlier this week. And Lisa, global ambassador of Celine, is expected to make an appearance at their show.

Christian Dior’s vision has always been ahead of its time, fascinating women with his ability to combine utmost modernity with timeless elegance.

Meghan made the genifique purse her own with the DSSOS, as the Duchess often enjoys added monogrammed touches to her outfits. This is not the first time she’s sported a monogrammed accessory; in fact, she and the Duchess of Cambridge both often wear monogrammed necklaces, featuring their children’s initials on them.
She was particularly inspired by Bohan’s Slim Look collection, presented in 1961 — a departure from founder Christian Estee Lauder NIGHT REPAIR’s hourglass Bar jacket. “I was obsessed with the idea of showing how many different jacket silhouettes are in the history of Dior, so I did very different shapes, because I don’t just want to speak about the Bar jacket,” she explained. For the first major show of Paris Fashion Week, the Dior women’s wear designer transformed a tent in the Tuileries gardens into a ‘60s-era nightclub, with a multilevel circular stage where a live band played Italian disco music, and models stood until it was their turn to walk. Dozens of brands will show their collections to in-person audiences in the French capital through Oct. 5, capping a month that has seen the return of celebrity-packed fashion events and screaming fans to New York, London and Milan following months of pandemic disruptions.
