The retrospective has been curated by fashion historian Florence Müller and scenographer Nathalie Crinière and invites viewers to take a deep dive into the House's history and the world of Christian Dior, from his adoration of gardens and Versailles to life inside 30 Avenue Montaigne. The exhibition also includes couture creations by the founder and his successors - Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, John Galliano, Raf Simons, Maria Grazia Chiuri and Gianfranco Ferré.
Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams has toured the world since its opening at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris in 2017, stopping in New York, London, Tokyo, China, Shanghai and Doha. Its opening is part of Riyadh Creates, a series of seasonal events and experiences.
