This lavish celebration marks twenty years of Dior Joaillerie, highlighting the breathtaking creations of creative director Victoire de Castellane through an extravagant illustrated dictionary. Since 1998, Castellane has been recognized for her bold approach to jewellery, blending the natural and artificial. Her fantastical pieces draw inspiration from global pop culture, Christian Dior's legacy, and the floral realm, embodying a timeless, poetic style. To commemorate two decades of her designs, this luxurious volume features a dictionary format with eighteen chapters, each beginning with a dazzling drop cap adorned with original collages. It chronicles Dior Joaillerie's history, from its initial collections to the acclaimed Le Bal des Roses and the celebrated floral gardens of Belladone Island, culminating with the latest collection, Gem Dior, unveiled in Venice in June 2019, and exclusively photographed for this publication. Over 300 images by renowned photographers like Guido Mocafico and Erwan Frottin illustrate this unique alphabetical journey. The entries, written by Olivier Gabet, director of the Mus�e des Arts d�coratifs, offer nonlinear, playful insights into the captivating world of one of the leading jewellery designers. This exquisite book, printed in Italy and creatively directed by Thomas Lenthal, serves as a stunning homage to Castellane's artistry and imagination.
