House of Dior

For the 70th anniversary of House of Dior, the Musée des Arts Décoratif is having an absolutely stunning exhibition where you'll discover some of Christian Dior & his successors' most beautiful creations.

I had heard it was a beautiful exhibition, but I was not expecting it to be that great! The tour starts with some historical stuff and pictures/illustrations about the haute couture house. A lot of pieces (jewellery, shoes, head pieces, etc.) are exposed behind a glass wall. The atmosphere is very dark and intriguing, putting emphasis on all the beautiful creations, and building curiosity. The more you explore, the more gorgeous it becomes: including an enchanting tree garden, and a breathtaking ballroom. I can usually be skeptical when I see fashion creations, but this time was the total opposite. Each and every single dress there is a piece of art.

I highly recommend visiting to experience this magical atmosphere!
