those old time models, the way they presenting the dresses was so unique, like, kinda dancing? if modern day models do that, would be quite a show. peculiar but fresh rather than they just vigorously walk straight.
Watching this makes my heart ache for what Dior has become. I'm envisioning what could have happened to honor Dior's origin and traditional heritage and instead we have...well. This.
I think part of the reason the New Look was so popular was because it didn't stray too far from the more menswear look of the 1940's. Yes, hourglass shapes are considered feminine, but the New Look is very straight and angular. Bullet bras are very triangular. So Dior made a New Look that didn't stray too far from it's past decade which made it easier for people to adopt.
your layout/editing are amazing, you speak so articulate, clear and calmly. all of your videos are very captivating, very interesting, and are not dull in the slightest ( even when you're sitting infront of the camera telling us your opinions. ) i love every one of your videos and i'm so happy that i've found your channel!!! this video was amazing!! more fashion history babe E D U C A T E us
LOVE how you executed this video. Amazing insights and I can just feel your passion when you talked about the legend himself. Can’t wait for the following video!!!!!!
Loved watching this... I consider myself to be an autodidact when it comes to fashion history. Thank you for such a brilliant and entertaining video! Cheers!
Yass! Loved the video, cant wait for the Ferre and JG episode. Would be great to hear about Schiaparelli! And btw I believe that Jean Cocteau is pronounced like cockteau :) lots of love from Poland
we'd like to see a video a what you think about the recently announced mat gala theme and what you think they should do with it, what you'd love to see incorporated,if it's a good theme, if it's going to be controversial, talk about the hosts. i'd love to see a video on that.
Love the video (as always)! I hope London is treating you well. I would love for you to school them on Guccio Gucci, Elie Saab, Azzedine Alaia, Roberto Capucci, Charles James, Oscar de la Renta & Eiko Ishioka. Xoxoxoxo
Brilliant! FINISH your very en pointe discussion of the history of Dior! So important to know! (ps my mom was a mannequin at chez Balmain when it began, not long after it started. But she never mentioned that Balmain wanted Dior for the two of them to go into business together! Live and learn!)
These are so interesting!!! I'd like to see some videos on Louis Vuitton. I know there's history behind the canvas prints and I'd like to hear it from you! Haha!
I love Dior! I have planned on making a replica of the iconic “Bar” suit for myself and even making the undergarments that go with it to support the stiff skirt.
