Dior Cabine [9782073127990]

Overview

Twelve female writers bring Dior’s cabine back to life. Through the prism of fiction, they will recreate the effervescence of the cabine, where the pinnacle of the house's creativity unfolded.

Dior’s cabine is legendary. Tania, Lucky, Victoire, France, Alla… so many names, figures, and silhouettes embody it in the eyes of the world and posterity, beyond the fantasized place that the term originally designates.

The word "cabine" refers, during the historical era of the haute couture house (1947-1957), to the fitting room reserved for models and, by metonymy, to the models themselves working full-time for the house. From the creation studio to the presentation salons, the cabine serves as the nerve center of a collection’s life.

Dior and Gallimard invite twelve female writers—a reference to the twelve models who composed the historical Dior cabine—to imagine twelve stories, like a bouquet-show.

This collection of stories will aim, through the prism of fiction, to recreate the effervescence of the cabine, where the pinnacle of the house's activity unfolded: the consecration of the models wearing designs for presentation to diverse audiences.
