French luxury fashion house Christian Dior, recently had it’s Resort 2017 runway show in England at the Blenheim Palace. Christian Dior himself showed a collection at Blenheim in 1954, so did his successor Yves Saint Laurent in 1958. Dior’s current design team is headed by Lucie Meier and Serge Ruffieux, both conveniently Swiss, holding down the fort since the departure of Raf Simons and they decided to show this collection at the grand historic venue. The show was a two day affair with a series of events.
According to Vogue.com, “The pair (of Dior designers) mixed classic Dior shapes with British motifs,” the show was a marriage of French and British fashion in perfect British weather. And a perfect day in the UK wouldn’t be complete without rain and a late train, which were both unavoidable at the show but that didn’t stop anything
