Dior

Christian Dior SE (French: [kʁistjɑ̃ djɔʁ]), commonly known as Dior, is a French fashion house and multinational corporation of luxury goods. The original fashion house was founded by French designer Christian Dior in 1946 to make haute couture items. Clothing is now produced by Christian Dior Couture, which is a subsidiary of LVMH. Headquartered in Paris, France, the company is renowned for its haute couture, ready-to-wear fashion, leather goods, accessories, footwear, jewelry, watches, fragrances, makeup, and skincare products. Dior is widely regarded as one of the world's most influential luxury brands, particularly for introducing the "New Look" silhouette in 1947, which revolutionized postwar women's fashion. Today, Dior operates globally through an extensive network of boutiques and is a key subsidiary of the luxury conglomerate LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy).
