Brilliant Book
Loved the exhibition, so this is a lovely reminder. Keep it on table inbetween sofas.

Eye candy for those who love to sew, brilliant student material.
Best book I've seen on Christian Dior, plenty of pictures, lots of embellished garments. Great material for the fashion student, a lot cheaper here than some other sellers and V&A themselves.

Beautiful Companion to the Exhibition
The guide is a lovely companion to the exhibition, which itself was amazing. The book takes you through each of the rooms you visit in the exhibition and highlights the most stunning parts. It's also a really interesting read, as I personally didn't manage to read/absorb everything whilst there, it was nice to sit at home and have a leisurely read at my own pace. If you're considering going to the exhibition, do, even if you're not the biggest high end fashion fan, the V&A does it so well that it'll be a memory that stays with you long after you visit. Buy the book if you can't!

Gorgeous book full of beautiful photos
Have been lucky enough to visit the amazing Dior Exhibition. Didn't buy the book at the time as its heavy, but the Amazon price is much better anyway. Its a beautiful book with some informative text but the star of the show is the full page photos of the wonderful outfits. The hard back linen cover with embossed writing and marker ribbon make this book feel more luxurious. Would definitely recommend. Absolutely love it.

less expensive than at the exhibition
I went to the CD exhibition and wanted to buy the book it was quite heavy, I looked on Amazon it was cheaper and was delivered to my home the next day. It is a lovely book.

Love this Dior book! Beautiful
I knew I wasn’t going to make it to the V&A to see the actual exhibition, even though they’ve extended it due to popularity. So I bought this bookIt’s beautiful, comprehensive and a must for a Dior, fashion or elegance fan.
