Stars in Dior
“No Dior, no Dietrich,” Marlene Dietrich declared to Alfred Hitchcock in 1950, demanding a Dior wardrobe for her role in Stage Fright – an essential condition for the woman who would go on to become the designer’s muse.
“Women could safely feel they had all the trappings of a fairy-tale princess to wear. A golden age seemed to have come again.”
The legendary star, much like Ava Gardner, Ingrid Bergman, and Elizabeth Taylor, chose Christian Dior, who started to design costumes for cinema from 1942.
From Marilyn Monroe to Sophia Loren, Claudia Cardinale to Lauren Bacall, actresses donned Dior silhouettes and spritzed Dior perfumes, forging stylistic affinities with the Creative Directors of the House. Emblematic stars adopted iconic pieces, such as Diana, Princess of Wales, and the Lady Dior bag named in her honour. These pairings continue today with the loyal friends and muses of the House, such as Charlize Theron, Natalie Portman, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Rihanna.
