Sparkling Thoughts
Monsieur Dior believed
that jewellery is every bit
as important as clothing,
and would design them
specifically for each of
his collections, instead of
matching them with the
clothes as an afterthought.

jewellery collections
influenced by the nine
creative directors at the helm.A Love for Nature

Dior’s jewellery, inspiration
was largely drawn

Monsieur Christian Dior’s

and gardens of France.
Floral motifs and animal
designs—even unicorns—were
frequently seen.
