Dior By Demarchelier

Dior Couture is like art – they are the art pieces of a fashion house. Each piece is unique and made by hand. We shot the book in so many different places – New York, London and Paris. I wanted to put couture in interesting situations and set different moods for each picture. That’s why I chose such a wide range of models – the book is made by so many different things; different places, different make-up artists, different models. ~Patrick Demarchelier
