The Dior Grand Ball collection, inspired by the flowing of a ball gown, now includes the new Dior Grand Ball d'Entaire, inspired by Christian Dior's Junon dress.
Balls were one of Christian Dior's greatest passions.
Balls were one of Christian Dior's greatest passions.
"A ball gown should not only be something a woman dreams of, but also something that enhances her dreamlike beauty," said Christian Dior.
The contrast between the dark blue of the night sky and the sparkling white of diamonds evokes the high-society balls that Monsieur Dior was fascinated by. Monsieur Dior believed that dark blue, his beloved color, could replace black, and its deep hue evokes a feminine aura. The rotor, which dances elegantly above the dial, is decorated with an openwork design and diamond "dentelle" (French for lace). Like the delicate lace used in couture, it sways lightly and elegantly, and is filled with the brilliance of brilliant-cut and pear-cut diamonds.
