Christian Dior Jewelry
French, 1905-1957
When Christian Dior launched his couture house, in 1946, he wanted nothing less than to make “an elegant woman more beautiful and a beautiful woman more elegant.” He succeeded, and in doing so the visionary designer altered the landscape of 20th century fashion. Vintage Dior bags, shoes, evening dresses, shirts and other garments and accessories are known today for their feminine and sophisticated sensibility.
Dior was born in Granville, on the Normandy coast, in 1905. His prosperous haute bourgeois parents wanted him to become a diplomat despite his interest in art and architecture. However, they agreed to bankroll an art gallery, which Dior opened in 1928 in Paris with a friend.
This was the start of Dior’s rise in the city’s creative milieu, where he befriended Pablo Picasso and Jean Cocteau. After seven years as an art dealer, Dior retrained as a fashion illustrator, eventually landing a job as a fashion designer for Robert Piguet, and in 1941, following a year of military service, he joined the house of Lucien Lelong. Just five years later, with the backing of industrialist Marcel Boussac, the ascendant Dior established his own fashion house, at 30 avenue Montaigne in Paris.
Just two years after the end of World War II, the fashion crowd and the moribund haute couture industry were yearning, comme tout Paris, for security and prosperity, desperate to discard the drab, sexless, utilitarian garb imposed by wartime deprivation. They needed to dream anew.
And Dior delivered: He designed a collection for a bright, optimistic future. “It’s quite a revolution, dear Christian!” exclaimed Carmel Snow, the prescient American editor-in-chief of Harper’s Bazaar, famously proclaiming, “Your dresses have such a new look.” The press ran with the description, christening Dior’s debut Spring/Summer haute couture collection the New Look. “God help those who bought before they saw Dior,” said Snow. “This changes everything.”
Dior’s collection definitively declared that opulence, luxury and femininity were in. His skirts could have 40-meter-circumference hems, and outfits could weigh up to 60 pounds. They were cut and shaped like architecture, on strong foundations that molded women and “freed them from nature,” Dior said. Rather than rationing, his ladies wanted reams of fabric and 19-inch waists enforced by wire corsets, and the fashion world concurred. The debut got a standing ovation.
In the subsequent decade, Paris ruled as the undisputed fashion capital of the world, and Christian Dior reigned as its king. With the luxuriously full skirts of his New Look, suits and his drop-dead gorgeous couture dresses and ball gowns worthy of any princess, Dior gave women the gift of glamour they’d lost in the miserable years of war.

Questions About Christian Dior Jewelry
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024To tell if Dior jewelry is real, examine the hallmarks featured on the piece. Christian Dior has changed its hallmarks many times over the years. By comparing the markings on your jewelry to images shared on trusted online resources, you can determine if your piece has the right hallmarks based on its approximate age. The O-rings, clasps and other hardware can also provide clues. Your jewelry may be a replica if you see any glue or soldering marks or if the hardware seems thin and fragile. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer can also be of assistance during the authentication process. On 1stDibs, explore a wide variety of Dior jewelry.
- What are Dior bags made of?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2024Dior bags are made of a variety of materials. Some of the bags created by the acclaimed French luxury house come in fabrics, including cotton canvas, jacquard, satin, blue denim and velvet. Other bags hand-crafted in Dior’s leatherworking ateliers have included those made with grained calfskin, durable bull calf leather and goatskin. Patent lambskin bags are also part of the brand's offerings as well as bags made with wicker, python leather and crocodile leather.

It was founded in 1946 by French fashion designer Christian Dior and gained fame for revolutionizing women’s fashion after World War II. Find a collection of authentic Christian Dior clothing, jewelry and other stunning items on 1stDibs.
- Are Dior accessories real gold?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024Dior accessories are not usually real gold. Like other luxury fashion houses, Dior tends to use palladium or brass with a gold-toned finish for its belt buckles, bag hardware and other metal details on accessories. Compared to gold, these materials are often more resistant to scratching and wear and tear. For its high jewelry line, Dior does craft pieces out of genuine 18-karat gold. Shop a selection of Dior jewelry and accessories on 1stDibs.
- How do I pronounce Dior Homme?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022To correctly pronounce the first word in Dior Homme, say "dee-OAR." The second word sounds like the word "home" but without the letter H. Dior is the French last name of the brand's founder, Christian Dior. "Homme" is the French word for man. Find a selection of Dior Homme on 1stDibs.
- Who is Christian Dior?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Christian Dior, born in Granville, France in 1905, was one of the most influential fashion designers of the 20th century. His “New Look,” which featured a sensuous silhouette complete with rounded shoulders, a cinched waist and a full skirt, revived extravagance in women’s fashion after the poverty of World War II. Find an opulent collection of Dior pieces from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022The current designer for Dior is Maria Grazia Chiuri as of December 2021. She became the first woman to lead creative designs at the brand when she took on the role in 2016. Previous chief designers for Dior include founder Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan and Gianfranco Ferré. On 1stDibs, shop a large collection of Dior garments, jewelry and accessories.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Whether or not Christian Dior jewelry is real gold depends on the type in question. Dior often uses genuine 18-karat gold for its fine jewelry pieces. Fashion jewelry is usually not real gold. Instead, the brand applies a gold-tone finish to a base metal. Silver-tone pieces typically feature the same base metal under a layer of palladium. Find a large collection of Christian Dior jewelry on 1stDibs.
- Does dior go on sale?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Dior boutiques often have sales at the end of the season on select items. The best way to find out is to ask your nearest location or keep an eye on the inventory. For physical store locations, consult the brand’s website. Shop iconic vintage and contemporary Dior clothing and accessories on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024To tell if Christian Dior jewelry is real, study the hallmarks carefully. Over the years, the French luxury fashion house has used different styles of markings. If you know roughly when your piece was made, you can compare its hallmarks to images of the stamps on authentic pieces produced around the same time to get an idea of its authenticity. Also, examine hardware like O-rings and clasps carefully. On genuine pieces, the hardware should be well-made and display no visible glue or soldering marks. For help with authentication, consult a certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Christian Dior jewelry.
- When was Dior founded?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The company Christian Dior was originally founded in 1946 at 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris, France. From there, Dior strove to deliver fashion for an optimistic post-war future, leading to the great success of his company. Shop a collection of designer Christian Dior pieces from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- What influenced Christian Dior?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Christian Dior was influenced by his years working as an art dealer and fashion illustrator before finally opening a fashion house of his own. He was initially interested in art and architecture. Prior to his work in fashion design, Dior ran an art gallery with a friend, where he showed the work of Max Ernst, Picasso, Joan Miró and others. In 1946, Dior opened his fashion house and strove to deliver bright fashions for a new era, discarding the sexless utilitarian garbs that had been forced upon people during the war. Three very talented women who worked in Dior’s studio — Madame Raymonde Zehnacker, Marguerite Carré and Mitzah Bricard — are also said to have inspired him.

- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024To tell if a Dior ring is real, first locate the maker's mark on the inside of the band. The Christian Dior hallmark has changed many times since the French fashion house introduced its first jewelry collection in 1948, and you can find images of these various marks on trusted online resources. Look at the hallmark on your ring alongside these images. If you notice any differences, your ring may be a replica. Other signs of a potential counterfeit include flaws in the finish and weak or poorly crafted gemstone settings. If you still aren't sure about the ring's authenticity, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or experienced dealer evaluate it for you. Find a range of Dior rings on 1stDibs.
