Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams

Documentary Film of the Retrospective Exhibition at Musée des Arts Décoratifs


Dior invites you to lose yourself in escapism and wonder by experiencing the exhibition ‘Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams’ from the comfort of your own home. The exhibition was held at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris from July 5, 2017 to January 7, 2018, and the captivating documentary takes you behind-the-scenes as a voyeuristic participant in the development of this extraordinary retrospective. Exploring the visionary virtuosity of Monsieur Dior and the Creative Directors who have succeeded him – from Yves Saint Laurent to Maria Grazia Chiuri – the film effectively captures Dior’s passion and sense of daring.

Over seventy years of creation is revealed through iconic haute couture dresses, precious archival photographs, sketches by Christian Dior, objects, accessories, original paintings by great masters, a cabinet of curiosities conceived as a sweeping display of color, and much more. Imbued with dreams and desires, a wealth of works and emblems enchant this visceral celebration of beauty and elegance in all their forms.
