When I was asked if I would like to review this beautiful book, I responded with a huge YES! Wow, am I glad I did! There are over 200 pages of beautiful art and stunning black and white and color images. Throughout the book, I dreamed of replicating one of these rooms over a five to ten year period. 

Maureen Footer gives us a first-hand look at Christian Dior, along with Victor Grandpierre and George’s Geffroy in the book, DIOR AND HIS DECORATORS: Victor Grandpierre, Georges Geffroy, and the New Look. The interiors and couture presented are historic and breathtaking. Every image wreaks of opulence, taking us back to the fifties in the most wonderful way. 

I have chosen a few of my favorites for you. ENJOY!
