The exhibit will feature a fascinating insight to Christian Dior's career

Christian Dior once said: "There is no other country in the world, besides my own, whose way of life I like so much. I love English traditions, English politeness, English architecture. I even love English cooking." Who would have thought it! The designer had a deep fascination with British culture, admiring the grandeur of the great houses and gardens of Britain, as well as British-designed ocean liners, including the Queen Mary. He also had a penchant for Savile Row suits, and his first UK fashion show took place at London's Savoy Hotel. In 1952, he established Christian Dior London.
