Once upon a time and Mr. Dior's lucky star....
On the evening of April 18, 1946, the designer pinned his hopes on a spectacular destiny.
While walking on the streets of Paris, he found a star on the ground. This fortuitous lucky charm – now an iconic Dior code – would show him the path to follow: to start his fashion house.
The Grand Soir Automate Étoile de Monsieur Dior captures the essence of this mystical prophecy through virtuosic design elements.
