Since the House of Dior’s inception, ateliers have worked behind the scenes to manifest each creative director’s vision.

Starting with a streamlined sketch, ateliers spend hours preparing mock-up designs before the fabrication process begins.

Collaborating under the direction of the head seamstress and their assistant, ateliers are split into two categories: flou (dressmaking) and tailleur (tailoring).

Learn more about this process in “Dior: Crafting Fashion,” now on view at SCAD FASH in Atlanta.

Through clean lines and refined silhouettes, designer Marc Bohan modernized couture for career-driven women during the 1980s.

Leading the House of Dior as creative director for nearly three decades, Bohan considered impeccable craftsmanship, tailoring, and minute details just as much as the final look. This 1986 design from the Dior Haute Couture Autumn/Winter collection was inspired by the abstract expressionist works of Jackson Pollock and merges both masculine and feminine elements for a more contemporary shape.
