Reviews
"One more time this reader has been wrong in thinking that there isn't anything more that can possibly be written about this fabled heritage brand and designer, but in this particular instance this reader could not have more thrilled with the content of Dior Hats: From Christian Dior to Stephen Jones! Mr. Jones proves himself as talented and adept with the pen as he is with a hat block. This book is one of the most delightfully written monographs that singles out not only the one aspect of the brand but also the eponymous designer and all those who followed in his footsteps and became part of that orbit." - NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS
"Christian Dior once said "without hats there is no civilization." Written by Stephen Jones, the curator of the Dior Hats exhibition at the Musee Christian Dior in Granville, France, Dior Hats gives a glimpse into the fantastical world of Dior Atelier headdresses over the years. Jones's compelling texts are accompanied by drawings and photographs from the Dior Archive, as well as shots by the iconic photographers Richard Avedon, Sir Cecil Beaton, and Craig McDean." -ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST.COM
