Dior's New Book, GCDS Makes an NFT, Miu Miu's Front Row Talks Space
BLURRED LINES: Dior celebrates its relationship with photographer Sarah Moon with a three-volume box set filled with its mysterious and blurred images evoking the language of dreams.
Moon photographed not only the creations of the current artistic director of women's collections Maria Grazia Chiuri, but also archival creations by founder Christian Dior and his successors Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, John Galliano and Raf Simons.
Some of the photographs are taken from Moon's editorials for Dior's in-house magazine. Others were created especially for the book, and shot at the Le Corbusier Foundation or in the Dior archives.

"Miss Dior"Christian Dior afternoon dress, Spring 1949. Sarah Moon/Courtesy of DiorSince joining the French fashion house in 2016, Chiuri has made it a rule to work with female photographers. Moon is known for her Polaroids and her subtle imagery around themes of evanescence of beauty, ambiguity and passing time.
"It was through his images that I discovered fashion during my studies. They are came to the surface when I arrived at Dior and started looking for new interpretations of femininity in fashion design,” Chiuri said.
"Sarah Moon's signature is her ability to shape unconscious movements and intuition retrospective and in her ability to imagine indescribable atmospheres.For all these reasons, her vision was perfect for transcribing the story told by my creative process for the Dior collections: that of a woman anchored in her time, drawing her strength from listening to his emotions,” she added.
"Dior by Sarah Moon" will be published by Delpire & Co., the publishing house founded by Moon's late partner Robert Delpire, on November 3 in Europe and in January 2023 abroad, at a price of 120 euros, or 150 dollars.
The first volume consists of a series of black and white compositions featuring model Andrea Gutiérrez wearing the original from Dior creations from 1947 to 1957. Diving into color, the second book is dedicated to the archives and features a text by curator and fashion historian Olivier Saillard. The third focuses on Moon's work with Chiuri over the past six years. — JOELLE DIDERICH
