Brands regularly update their pricing to match the state of the economy. Global inflation is one of the main factors that contributes towards a steeper price increase. Dior certainly isn’t the only luxury brand to revise its prices, Chanel increased its prices in May of 2023.

She was the brand ambassador of their 2015 Secret Garden campaign, becoming the first Black ambassador of Dior. The campaign, with its magnetic visuals, was shot by renowned photographer Stephen Klein, who will also take on the star’s visuals for the J’Adore campaign. As noted by WWD, Rihanna will replace Charlize Theron as the official face of the scent. Theron, who fronted countless campaigns for J’Adore over the past 20 years and made some truly iconic commercials for the scent, is now the French fashion house’s style and jewelry ambassador. Envisioning a globe peopled with customers clad in head-to-toe Dior, the designer set about building an empire of elegance, establishing outposts in New York, London, and Caracas.

Apart from being spotted at several Dior fashion shows, most recently during Paris Fashion Week earlier this year and during her first pregnancy, Rihanna became Dior’s first Black ambassador in 2015. Although Dior created many notched collars, he was a fervent advocate of shawl collars and curved necklines. Arguably, the shawl collar plays effectively with the curvaceous forms Dior articulated at the shoulders and hips. The notched lapel is more often found in the work of Adrian and other suit makers of the 1940s who stressed angled geometries. The “Bar” suit also reveals the hand stitching at the inside of the collar and hand-stitched self-covered buttons of the atelier tailleur. The Book Tote from Dior is as beloved now as it was when it was first released in 2018.

The beloved scent includes an alluring mix of pear, magnolia, musk and blackberry notes. In June 1955, Yves Saint Laurent, who was still studying at the École de la Chambre Syndicale de la haute couture, met with Michel de Brunhoff again and showed him approximately fifty recent sketches. De Brunhoff was immediately struck by the young man’s talent and the close resemblance between his drawings and Christian Dior’s A-line designs. He arranged for Saint Laurent to meet Dior at 30 avenue Montaigne, where the young man was immediately hired to work in the couturier’s studio. It’s a floral fragrance built around jasmine, rose, and ylang-ylang notes housed in an equally iconic teardrop-shaped bottle with a high, skinny neck wrapped in gold. J’Adore has been a bestseller for the house since its inception and the lineup now includes several flankers.

Saint Laurent was replaced at Dior by designer Marc Bohan in late 1960. Actress Elizabeth Taylor ordered twelve Dior dresses from Bohan’s Spring-Summer 1961 collection featuring the “Slim Look”. The Dior perfume “Diorling” was released in 1963 and the men’s fragrance “Eau Sauvage” was released in 1966.[5] Bohan’s assistant Philippe Guibourgé launched the first French ready-to-wear collection “Miss Dior” in 1967. This is not to be confused with the already existing New York Ready-to-Wear store established in 1948. Designed by Bohan, “Baby Dior” opened its first boutique in 1967 at 28 Avenue Montaigne. The House of Dior, founded in 1946, changed the face of style forever when its New Look was unveiled in the halls of 30 Avenue Montaigne on February 12th, 1947.

The New Look celebrated ultra-femininity and opulence in women’s fashion. The photos from the campaign were shared on the official brand’s accounts on social media. By the mid-1950s, the House of Dior operated a well-respected fashion empire.[10] The first Dior boutique was established in 1954 at 9 Conduit Street. In honour of Princess Margaret and the Duchess of Marlborough, a Dior fashion show was held at the Blenheim Palace in 1954 as well. The revamp of J’adore is poised to be Dior’s biggest perfume launch since Jennifer Lawrence-fronted “Joy” in 2018.

Dior Beauty has named Rihanna as the face of “J’adore” in a bid to reinvigorate the flagship fragrance range.

While some may be surprised, Rihanna’s partnership with the brand also feels natural for many others who have noticed her consistent presence at Dior’s fashion shows. She also worked with the brand in 2016 on an eyewear collection — making her the label’s first Black celebrity ambassador. On September 1, 1960, as the conflict in Algeria intensified, Yves Saint Laurent was drafted for military duty. The house of Dior decided to fire him and chose Marc Bohan as his replacement. When Pierre Bergé delivered the news, Saint Laurent said, “We will found a haute couture house together, and you will manage it,” to which Bergé replied, “That’s what we will do.” And that is exactly what they did.
