“I make clothes for real women, not myself, not for mannequins and not for fashion magazines” - today's designers should take these words to heart

My vintage fashion magazine collection from the 1960s to 1970s has really made me appreciate his work at Dior. Underrated isn't the right word, but I think he's been a bit unfairly forgotten... but that's fashion. He was really one of the best of that era.

A fantastic designer highly underrated but I think time has give him grace. He has the hard task to create and interpret a spirit and he did it beautifully.
While he wasn’t a revolutionary, he maintained Dior as part of the fashion conversation at a time when traditional Couture houses struggled.

‘It’s a pity that he disappeared after leaving Dior.
May he rest in peace.
