Dreaming of Dior: A Night at The Fashion Gallery

"DREAMING OF DIOR" BY CHARLOTTE SMITH

Dreaming of Dior, a new book published by Harper Collins, traces the fashion adventures of author Charlotte Smith who inherited the amazing Darnell Collection from her godmother, Doris Darnell. The 5000 pieces in the collection, dating from 1790 to 1995, have all had adventures of their own, some poignant, some inspiring, but all fascinating with each dress telling a story of its owner's life. The stunning illustrations of Grant Cowan, some of which you see in the slideshow above, brings the stories to life in a book that is both beautiful and informative.
