Here is a look back at some stars and some Dior...

Marlene Dietrch at a Dior show in 1951:


The gorgeous Lauren Bacall with Bogie at a Dior show in 1952:


The heavenly Sophia Loren in Dior.  Look at that back!  that behind!  those eyes!  those lips!  I love this dress by Marc Bohan for Christian Dior 1967:


and the beautiful Marilyn Monroe looking ethereal and a vision in black with long black gloves and her almost white/blonde hair in Dior 1962:


and Charlize Theron in Dior at the Oscars 2005:


and, of course, you know I had to include, Natalie Portman in Christian Dior haute couture from 1954 (and from RARE vintage : ) at the 2012 Academy Awards:


If you can't make it to the Christian Dior Museum in Granville for the show, you can pre-order the book, Stars in Dior here.
