A ballgown is your dream, and it must make you a dream… wearing a beautiful ballgown you become a real woman; all femininity, daintiness and sweetness.” Just like the other colors, there is a shade of yellow for everyone--but you have to take the trouble to find it. Of course, it would take volumes to cover the entire field of Fashion, but I have compiled a book which I think is neither too long, so that it becomes tedious, nor too short so that it seems insufficient, and I have called it my ‘Little Dictionary of Fashion’.You literally learn how to dress well for ANYTHING and how to use your money more wisely when purchasing clothes. The man is a god, seriously. And he talks to all social classes, not just to women who can afford a Dior piece, haha! As a bonus, the reader also can enter Dior’s mind and have a glimpse of what was like to live and get dressed in the 1960’s. Spoiler alert: thank God for Macy’s, hahaha! That said, it was a bit of an interesting time capsule, to read Dior’s thoughts on different aspects of fashion. Unfortunately, many of the definitions are less, well, definitions, and more paragraphs about how said item fits into Dior’s view of fashion. Which is fine, but it’s hard for me to assess Dior’s thoughts on pique when I’m still not entirely sure what that is. Additionally, many sections (such as hemlines) would have benefited from drawings showing the various types and their names. Elegance] must be the right combination of distinction, naturalness, care and simplicity, Outside this, believe me, there is no elegance. Only pretension.

Christian Dior reveals the secrets of style in The Little Dictionary of Fashion , a charming, indispensable guide that covers everything from what to wear to a wedding and how to tie a scarf to how to walk with grace. These are timeless tips with something special for every woman. But it is possible for a woman to be elegant without spending very much money on her clothes, if she follows the basic rules of Fashion and is careful to choose the clothes that suit her personality. When I was young, women used much more perfume than they do now and I think that was wonderful and I regret now that more women don't use it lavishly now. After women, flowers are the most lovely thing God has given the world. But being so sweet and charming they must be used with care…” You can dress to suit yourself – and therefore your age – but this does not mean that you have to wear clothes that make you look old.Gjate sfides sime per te krijuar nje garderobe qe me pershtatet dhe reflekton vetveten time, e dija qe duhet te edukohesha mbi veshjet dhe stilet dhe kombinimet dhe modat. Nje bote e tere per t'u zbutur. Ndaj, mendova se menyra me e mire do te ishte te ndiqja udhezimet e nje prej mjeshtrave te modes: fjalorin e modes nga Christian Dior. There is a slight difference in a woman's way of dressing before and after marriage, too. I would not advise anyone to wear big jewels and expensive furs before marriage.

I also enjoyed learning new fashion terminology like Princess Line (I never knew that style was called that) and Persian Lamb (a fur I have never heard about). First you must study yourself. Learn to know what suits you and what does not. And study your own needs. Find the colours that flatter you and emphasise your looks. Avoid the colours that do nothing for you. When I was young, women used much more perfume than they do now and I thin that was wonderful and I regret now that more women don't use it lavishly now. And the most useful design is a dress with a décolleté – and a bolero or spencer. Any sort of material is good – from wool to lace. Any sort of bodice, and any kind of skirt – slim or full, it depends on your figure and the kind of life you lead. Age

The book is pretty and has very little content - all platitudes, some of them mildly interesting. If you really want to learn about vintage fashion from a vintage book, choose A Guide to Elegance: For Every Woman Who Wants to Be Well and Properly Dressed on All Occasions or ABC of Men's Fashion.

Fur features prominently in here (fox, sable, mink - all are discussed, and the various virtues compared), the styles mentioned revolve heavily around skirts and skirt suits (I’m not sure trousers were mentioned at all), and every picture is of very tiny white woman. Additionally, Dior makes many mentions of what is appropriate for ‘plump’ women in terms of prints and color which, frankly, I have no interest in. Wear what you like! An accent is that little personal touch which makes a dress designed by a couturier your own dress. It is of great importance.
