Christian Dior was an influential French fashion designer, known for his elegant and innovative designs. In addition to his famous haute couture, bijoux (costume jewelry) played an important role in his fashion house.

Dior understood that accessories were an essential part of the overall appearance of an outfit. He introduced bijoux to complement and elevate his clothing.

Dior's bijoux were often luxurious and detailed, characterized by the use of imitation pearls, crystals, and gold-plated metals. The designs were often inspired by nature, featuring floral motifs and organic shapes.

Dior's jewelry employed various techniques such as gilding, enameling, and crystal setting. These techniques contributed to the luxurious look of the jewelry.

Dior collaborated with talented jewelry designers like Mitchel Maer and Robert Goossens, resulting in iconic pieces that are both innovative and timeless.
