维纳斯晚礼服

Couture Line House of Dior French
Designer Christian Dior French

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 899

克里斯汀·迪奥的“维纳斯”以十八世纪的暗灰色来表现,这是迪奥的标志性色彩。上衣与裙摆的贝壳形状上饰有闪亮的金属片、亮片和珍珠,既表达出海贝的主题,也表现出波提切利的《维纳斯的诞生》(1485年)中的新月形波浪纹。在第二次世界大战之后,迪奥重新引入了巴黎“美丽年代”的细腰,形成一种以紧身胸衣为基础的轮廓;当时的公众十分渴望那个更优雅的时代的奔放想象力。在这个设计中,无肩紧身上衣中撑满骨架。对迪奥来说,美丽在于打扮。“我的梦想就是,”他曾写道,“拯救女性于自然中。”
