12 February. Celebrating 79 years since the House’s historic debut show on this date in 1947. Monsieur Dior’s first collection caused a sensation with its ultra-feminine silhouettes and generous use of fabric at a time when the muted styles of the WWII years still dominated. Dubbed the “New Look” by editor Carmel Snow, the impact of Monsieur Dior’s collection was instant and international. And one of the designs, the Bar suit, remains an endlessly reinvented House icon today. | Dior
