Archive note

In 1947, Christian Dior revolutionized post-war fashion with his first collection, dubbed the "New Look" by legendary Harper's Bazaar editor-in-chief Carmel Snow, who exclaimed, "It's quite a revolution, dear Christian!". From that debut, which was met with a standing ovation, Paris returned to being the fashion capital of the world.
