partnered with Visionaire to give us a chance to look inside Dior atelier, where the team has been working hard, bringing creative director Raf Simons’ ideas to life.
“Couture is a magic word. It conjures thoughts of impeccable craftsmanship, visionary design and legendary fashion moments. But, most of us don’t encounter haute couture very often, unless we’re looking at a celebrity on the red carpet, a model on a catwalk or a mannequin in a museum case. We wanted to get closer to couture – and to get you closer to couture”, we read at Refinery29. This less than 4:30 minutes story will change your way of understanding high fashion. Enjoy.
