On the one hand, the designs in this series generally use fabrics that are several times or even more than ten times that of a wartime garment, and the ultimate cutting and craftsmanship pile up the dream of luxurious fashion. On the other hand, this series has completely changed the square shoulder straight silhouette of the past decade. Taking the highly renowned Bar Jacket as an example, it features a soft shoulder pad design that accentuates the wasp waist, while the skirt silhouette extends outward from the hips to the calves. The flower like silhouette emphasizes the unique curves of women.
After the show, Carmel Snow, then the editor in chief of the American version of “Fashion Basha,” exclaimed that it had presented a new look, and New Look became the name of the series.
It is not difficult to see from the title that the main storyline of “The New Look” will revolve around Christian Dior, which means that the film will portray this gentle aristocratic young man with strong ink, who created the founder of the fashion house who now stands at the top of the luxury brand pyramid.
Although based on the three episodes released so far, “The New Look” seems more like a historical plot than a fashion film, viewers are still curious about the stories of two influential masters in French and even world fashion history. At present, the film has a rating of 7.1 on the world’s most well-known and influential film review website IMBd.
The New Look creates a tense atmosphere between the two from the beginning. Coco Chanel announced his return to the high-end stage due to dissatisfaction with Christian Dior’s design. At the same time, New Look, which emphasizes the beauty of body curves, emerged from the auditorium of the University of Sorbonne in Paris and won applause. This is Christian Dior’s famous work.
