It is a collection that never fails to amaze us with its simplicity, femininity and versatility. It has found its way to our necks, wrists and fingers to demonstrate our faith in lucky charms, as the great Christian Dior did. At the end of the day, is there anyone better than a legendary designer to become an idol for the women who seek perfection?
Dior’s Rose des Vents jewelry collection has now become an icon of the house’s loyalty to its founder. Inspired by Christian Dior’s childhood villa in Granville named Les Rhumbs, every jewelry piece in this collection can be your lucky charm just as the symbol that lies at its heart was to the designer himself. The mosaic flooring of the pool behind the house featured the wind rose motif and in Paris, finding a mysterious star on the ground led the superstitious Monsieur Dior to open his couture house. With this lucky star in his pocket, he travelled the world to present his collections in which the rose played a quintessential role and gave his house the success it deserves.
In Rose des Vents, Victoire de Castellane reinterpreted all of Christian Dior’s beloved icons, from the star to the idea of the good-luck charm and the rose, his favorite flower. Each piece implicitly echoes the history of the house, which makes it a small motif with great value.
