Christian Dior has a very interesting history. In the late 1920s Christian opened an art gallery in France and gave support to such artists as Picasso, Cocteau and Dali. Tragedy struck his family in 1929 as they had invested heavily in the American stock exchanges. They were wiped out by the crash of '29. They struggled to survive but in 1935 Christian started selling his fashion drawings to dress makers who would then produce beautiful and elegant works to their customers. By the mid 1940s, after surviving WW II, Christian opened up his own fashion design shop in Paris. Then in 1947 Dior exploded onto the high fashion scene with a showing of his own line of fashion which, up to this time, had never been seen before. He introduced the rounded shoulder patterns and flaring, loose skirts. He took the fashion world by storm and made Paris, again, the fashion capitol of the world. Dior came to the US afterward and introduced his perfume scents. The world welcomed Dior with open arms and his fashions and accessories have been well accepted and popular with the entire world even to this day.
