Christian Dior on the Red Square
Moscow, 2013
The project was dedicated to the 55th anniversary of the very first show of the Dior fashion house in Moscow, which took place on June 10, 1959. During 1959, the Soviet Union officially allowed fashion shows, and stopped persecution of people in trendy clothes. That decision created a preferable atmosphere and allowed Madame Suzanne Lulling, who was the Head of Dior Salon at the time to organize a fashion show in Moscow. The show took place in the House of Culture “Wings of the Soviets“, decorated in the French tri-colors. There were 11,000 invitations for “défilé” which were sent only to the higher members of Communist party and to the Soviet elite.
