those old time models, the way they presenting the dresses was so unique, like, kinda dancing? if modern day models do that, would be quite a show. peculiar but fresh rather than they just vigorously walk straight.
Financial education should be taught in every level of education but because of the misplaced priorities we have in the system, the ignorant man is suffering it.
Watching this makes my heart ache for what Dior has become. I'm envisioning what could have happened to honor Dior's origin and traditional heritage and instead we have...well. This.
I think part of the reason the New Look was so popular was because it didn't stray too far from the more menswear look of the 1940's. Yes, hourglass shapes are considered feminine, but the New Look is very straight and angular. Bullet bras are very triangular. So Dior made a New Look that didn't stray too far from it's past decade which made it easier for people to adopt.
Love the video (as always)! I hope London is treating you well. I would love for you to school them on Guccio Gucci, Elie Saab, Azzedine Alaia, Roberto Capucci, Charles James, Oscar de la Renta & Eiko Ishioka. Xoxoxoxo
your layout/editing are amazing, you speak so articulate, clear and calmly. all of your videos are very captivating, very interesting, and are not dull in the slightest ( even when you're sitting infront of the camera telling us your opinions. ) i love every one of your videos and i'm so happy that i've found your channel!!! this video was amazing!! more fashion history babe E D U C A T E us
we'd like to see a video a what you think about the recently announced mat gala theme and what you think they should do with it, what you'd love to see incorporated,if it's a good theme, if it's going to be controversial, talk about the hosts. i'd love to see a video on that.
Yass! Loved the video, cant wait for the Ferre and JG episode. Would be great to hear about Schiaparelli! And btw I believe that Jean Cocteau is pronounced like cockteau :) lots of love from Poland
Loved watching this... I consider myself to be an autodidact when it comes to fashion history. Thank you for such a brilliant and entertaining video! Cheers!
I enjoyed this, with one critique: Dior didn't create a silhouette: the "New Look" was new and fresh for people at the time, but it was clearly Neo-Victorian in aesthetic, a callback to the 1850's. It's probably no surprise that it took off in the US in the 1950's, when the social roles for women were so parallel those of the previous century: 1850's "distaff side" was 1950's "homemaker"; 1850's "angel of the hearth/home" was 1950's "domestic goddess"; and both eras punished women for being sexual while also expecting them to bear children. In terms of visual symbology, the corseted/girdled waist indicates being reduced or tightly controlled (even self-controlled, not always oppressed); the huge skirt both hides and calls attention to the woman's reproductive area; and the downward-sloping shoulders suggest weakness, yielding, or passivity. I love the New Look, and always feel smashing in a dress with nipped waist and full skirt, but I can enjoy it and also know where it comes from and why it recurs in Western fashion whenever the social pressure is on for women to be more decorative than active. The luxury which Dior and his customers were reaching for was the opposite of wartime privation, and by extension the opposite of women's wartime responsibility to be useful and competent.
LOVE how you executed this video. Amazing insights and I can just feel your passion when you talked about the legend himself. Can’t wait for the following video!!!!!!
Copied by ALL levels of fashion retail…HE was western woman’s fashion from 1947-1962 (accept that ONE cardigan suit from Chanel). Best years of fashion in my opinion…wonderful video, thank you for this 🤗
When you think about it, Europe was completely in shambles at the time the New Look dropped. Like every city had just acres of bombed out buildings. In some places the rubble stuck around for decades (In London, they were still rebuilding from the Blitz into the 1960s). People didn't have enough to eat and disease (like the TB that Dior caught) was rampant. To top it off, the horrors of the Holocaust and the trials of Nazis were being broadcast for the first time. Oh and also fear of atomic war that might end life on Earth at any moment was brand new as well. That is the context for the New Look and it's kind of staggeringly and willfully tone deaf and yet it's so incredibly beautiful as well. The structural/sculptural quality of it made it walking art. I'm obsessed with classic film and some of my favorite film makers, Powell and Pressburger, made the movie The Red Shoes in this same context, filming in the South of France, and turned out one of the most egregiously beautiful movies ever made. It's almost like people were thirsting for beauty and luxury after so much deprivation and destruction.
Brilliant! FINISH your very en pointe discussion of the history of Dior! So important to know! (ps my mom was a mannequin at chez Balmain when it began, not long after it started. But she never mentioned that Balmain wanted Dior for the two of them to go into business together! Live and learn!)
It's "Haute Mode" not Haute le Mode, which makes no sense in French. You should have checked it before you started your channel. You could say l'Haute Mode, however. You should also learn how to pronounce la rue Montaigne. It looks like you know zero French.
Interesting video, but the (very sparsely edited) auto-generated captions are unfortunately a very hard to follow disaster. If I did not have the ability to mostly hear the narration, this video would be incredibly confusing. I'd love to offer to fix them, through community captioning, because this seems like an interesting video with good information. But Google apparently decided they weren't worth it. So unfortunately there's nothing I can do except bring it to the attention of the creators.
These are so interesting!!! I'd like to see some videos on Louis Vuitton. I know there's history behind the canvas prints and I'd like to hear it from you! Haha!
dior having mgc now.. isnt necessarily a disappointment, but let's just say that im hoping that i witness its elegance again.. im still new to fashion, and have much to learn, but even though mgc isn't the greatest, i thank her for bringing me in. still, i hope she/other new designer brings the classic feeling of a dior fashion show :( great video!
Loved your show great history lesson my grandfather is Lawrence Kaye By Christian Dior that was his old company then it became Lawrence Kaye furs . I never learn the history you gave me inspiration thank you
PLEASE DO MAISON GOYARD, LOUIS VUITTON, & GUCCI. AND PLEASE TEACH US HOW TO PROPERLY PRONOUNCE THE HOUSE/BRAND NAMES . CUZ PPL GET SO HEATED ABOUT HOW TO SAY CERTAIN HOUSE NAMES ;P
I have always wondered what motivated haute couture. To hear that it was a response to post-war conditions and the desire to move out of a sense of scarcity and into abundance makes sense. Both men and women could benefit from the je ne sais quoi.

For some reason the model is presented as masculine, or even manly...It’s bizarre.
Yes, Galliano was great for 'disco Runway Models!!
even if nowadays models tried to do the same they wouldn't be allowed to
I LIVE FOR THIS CHANNEL
leah Omg he’s talking about Dior not Channel
Britney From 2007 i’m scrEAMING
Rei kawakubo episode please
Btw youre so handsome
The move that the Dior took was so strategic , it made fortunes for them.
This shows that you have to put in effort in order to succeed.
@Charles Clifford good things are expensive and the brand took years of experience to be where there are today.
What it implies is that the poor can't afford it?
Being poor is In the mind . If you have determination you can achieve great things. Stop think "when will I " but *how can I*

yesss more fashion history vids!!
Watching this makes my heart ache for what Dior has become. I'm envisioning what could have happened to honor Dior's origin and traditional heritage and instead we have...well. This.
You made my style and perspective change drastically in a good way, plus these videos are so educating and easy to follow! Please keep shining! 💕

Versace next! At least touch on when Gianni was alive and snatching wigs 😄
How did you not talk about the shade between Dior and Chanel?
@Qwerty123 was she not a nazi?
@@Wendigirl11 i think she was
the waist of the model at 6:30 is insane. her body is snatched
snatched, and cinched
"snatched"
lmao
Miss Victoire!

My biggest Fear is that Dior will be ruined by «streetwear». Dont see it happening, but who knows
I really like your fashion history videos they are so educational and interesting
His autobiography is one of the best books I have ever read! Christian Dior not only was an amazing designer but he was a good person too!
LOVE how you executed this video. Amazing insights and I can just feel your passion when you talked about the legend himself. Can’t wait for the following video!!!!!!
Christian dior, christian dior, im up in all the stores
Loved this, and love your channel! As a fashion student I appreciate content like this on youtube so much. Thank you! x

Quality designer 🤩 nice clothes. 👏👏👏
Charles James and Norman Hartnell. The Emanuels in the 80s.
He doesn't seem to pronounce "haute" correctly. It sounds more like "hot "
I love Dior! The style is so bougie.
Ugh, the fashions! The fashions!! Yes Gawd!!!
