Since its creation in the mid 1940s, Dior has continued to keep Paris at the fore front of global fashion. Famous for creating the ‘New Look’, Christian Dior launched his first fashion collection in the Spring/Summer of 1947. This new collection went down in fashion history as the "New Look" after Harper's Bazaar 's editor-in-chief Carmel Snow's exclamation, "It's such a New Look!" 

Boasting a number of firsts, Dior was the first designer to launch a fragrance to accompany its line, baby Dior to grow with its loyal clients, and Miss Dior that offered a ready-to-wear collection. With this list of revolutionary additions to the fashion industry, it’s no surprise that the designer brand is deemed one of today’s visionaries and the Dior sunglasses collection reflects not only the brand’s rich, Parisian heritage, but also offers a varied mix of contemporary styles for both men and women. Some of the colours and tones used are vivid and dazzling whereas some used are darker or more neutral, but all create a luscious and opulent piece of eyewear These colours have then been incorporated into designs which perfectly accentuate Dior's sumptuous characteristics.
