From 65438 to 0935, in the early days of independence, Dior experienced a very dark time. Every day, he has to look for job opportunities from small advertisements in the newspaper. He doesn't have a fixed address, sometimes he lives with friends, sometimes he sleeps on the street and is hungry, and finally he gets tuberculosis. Nevertheless, Dior never collapsed.
One day when Dior was deeply depressed because he couldn't find a job, a friend in the fashion world suggested that he draw some clothing design drawings, but it was very popular. Every design fully shows his unique talent, and he firmly grasps the dynamics in life. Every design is so lifelike.
1937, finally became a fashion designer of "Pignet" company. Just then, World War II broke out and Dior was forced to leave Paris to reunite with his family. When he returned to Paris, his position as a fashion designer in Pignet Company had been replaced by others, so he had to become an assistant. At that time, Dior was over 40 years old, and all his friends were successful. It's Dior's turn to do something big.
Years of trial and failure made Dior mature, and he clearly realized his talent. He is a born designer. He has never learned the skills of cutting and sewing, but he clearly knows the concept of cutting and has a keen proper limit.
1947 February 12, this is a glorious day, Dior opened his first high fashion show, and the first fashion collection was called "New Look". The fashion style is distinct: the skirt length no longer mops the floor, emphasizing the curve of female breast augmentation, slender waist and soft shoulder shape, breaking the conservative and rigid lines of women's clothing after the war. This style has caused a sensation in Paris and even the whole western world, leaving a deep impression on people and making Dior famous in the fashion world. When the model appeared in front of people, people could hardly believe their eyes: a long skirt with a big round table, a thin waist, a towering chest, and a hat that obliquely covered half of their eyes ... Suddenly, people brightened up and the ladies sitting in the audience began to feel annoyed and uneasy about the short skirts and coats they were wearing at that time. Dior's day was a great success.
Soon, Dior successfully developed his rising career to the other side of the Atlantic-the United States with his first fashion collection "New Fashion". The news soon spread throughout new york, and Dior finally took root in new york Seventh Street (a nationally famous street). The arrival of Dior brought the unique charm and color of European fashion to the hometown of "Uncle Sam" who had been isolated from Europe because of the war. People began to bid farewell to miniskirts, lantern sleeves, flat shoes and cauliflower fancy hats. Dior's design also broke the popular channel fashion before the war. Dior's wide-brimmed hat and rustling long skirt remind people of more classical times. This is the new style that Dior emphasized.
Dior boldly used black in his second creation. The waist of that black pure wool dress is 40 meters. Dior named his second work "Dierame".
Subsequently, Dior plans to expand its business to Cuba, Mexico, Canada, Australia, Britain and other countries. In just a few years, a huge commercial network has been established all over the world.
1947, the first bottle of perfume named "Miss Dior" became famous, followed by "Diorama" and "Diorissimo".
The "vertical modeling" and "tulip modeling" introduced in 1950s are the expression of Dior's advocating the design concept of fashion feminization.
From 65438 to 0952, Dior began to relax the waist curve and improve the skirt hem.
1953 the bottom of the skirt was raised to 40 cm from the ground, which made the European society in an uproar.
1954, the "H" design with reduced shoulder width and increased skirt, and the "Y" and "Spinning" series released in the same year all caused an uproar. These simple and young linear designs still reflect his slender and gorgeous style and always follow the standards of traditional women.
1985, the "poison" came out.
199 1 year, Dune came out.
1995, "DolceVifa" came out.
