A thief of time
Usually you buy these art and fashion books to impress your friends or have a flick through when you have time to kill but this one is so captivating I can spend 10 minutes looking at one dress. The sheer astonishing effort that goes into the couture is reflected here by the size and quality of the book itself, which I would dare say is worth far more than the asking price.I do agree that the focus is more on Galliano and there is a lack of Christian Dior's work however this has been explored in other books. There is also an absence of Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Giafranco Ferre et al but i imagine this is testimony to (dare I say) Galliano's genius. His work is incredible and sadly this has become his entire Dior opus after his fall from grace last year nevertheless I love him and the book is a magnificent display of his capabilities as a dress maker.As for the photography, demarchelier is on form. Enough said. The only single reservation I have is Carine Roitfeld's dreadful styling around the centre of the book. She has managed to make Dior couture look like a TopShop advert, comment if you agree, obviously you'll have to buy the book to see it, which is my intention because you definitely should

Stunning book
Got this for my sister for Christmas. She was thrilled and loves Dior couture. She is a huge fan of Galliano's work when he was with Dior, and this book focuses quite a bit on him. Not much writing, but is simply a big, beautiful coffee table style book to be in awe of. Beautiful pictures of great campaigns.

Perfect for property staging. Beautiful, very big book.
I work as an interior designer and this book does wonders when staging an apartment for a professional photoshoot. It would also be a great addition to any home and will make it look rather elegant and sophisticated.
