WHEN French millionaire Marcel Boussac asked Christian Dior to start his eponymous s label, it was hard to imagine it would one day spawn the largest luxury brand d in the world. To mark the 70th anniversary of the legendary fashion house’s first ever show, each of Dior’s haute couture collections has been gathered together and put in one stonking great book. Filled to the brim with beautiful clothes and even more beautiful women, it’s one to plonk on the coffee table and read whenever life is lacking glamour.
