Lilian Bassman photo a masterpiece so avangarde


It is the book to have right now,
not only as a coffee table book but as a must fashion study.
American Dior, by Kate Betts Assouline
Presents the love affair America had and has with
Christian Dior.
Back in the 50s no trip in Europe was complete
unless you have payed a visit to Monsieur Dior Atelier.
I gor my copy as a gift, I will give it as a gift
I encourage you to get a copy maybe next time you
are in Paris you can visit the Chic Assouline Bookstore.
On line too but Monsieur Dior would have like the store....
