To celebrate its 70th Anniversary this year, Dior has just debuted Dior Catwalk, a glossy tome that provides a brilliant chronology of the Maison’s entire design œuvre, and takes us through a journey of every single collection, from Haute Couture 1947 right up to Maria Grazia Chiuri’s 2017 collections.

The book also gives us a concise history of Dior’s beginnings, and takes us right through all the designer profiles of all of the Creative Directors that succeeded Monsieur Dior himself – Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, John Galliano, Raf Simons, and of course, the current first lady designer for the House, Maria Grazia Chiuri – all of which, are accompanied by over 1,100 images both from the catwalk, as well as previously unpublished images.

In short, it’s the ultimate definitive Dior encyclopaedia.
