I remember a sales associate at our small town department store who always looked very chic and elegant with her simple solid color dresses, mid-size heels, a beautiful sparkling brooch, gray hair, and a beautiful red lip!!! She made an impression on me as a small child with her simple elegance. You are right Marie-Anne, lots of money does not guarantee style or sophistication

Intéressant. You grew up in Normandie and live there now. As an American foreign exchange student in 1967, I attended l’ Université de Rouen. I was fortunate enough to live in the Hôtel de Ville, as my French “father” was lieutenant mayor. I recently have been watching your videos and have purchased your books. Thank you for reminding me of what I used to know (when I was thinner). I have started to watch my portions and stop my snacking. Also, I have started to purge my closet. Merci for all you do.

Just found this, four years after you posted it. I really admire Dior, and those quotes are so true. Lovely post, including those famous sketches. Thank you! So elegant.❤

I had a very demanding and elegant French language teacher in high school who wore 5 elegant outfits to school each week. For some reason, all I noticed was how beautiful she looked everyday, never realized she was wearing the same outfits over and over. One day she mentioned in class that she dressed in the “French fashion”. Fifty years later, I now realize that Mademoiselle’s suits wear custom made for her tiny, tiny silhouette. She was not a “pretty” woman, though she was beautiful.

Yes Marie- Anne I agree with you and Christian Dior. Not everything " in Style" suits everyone. I have to wear what I feel good in. It has to be something that feels like me, my style. These clothes I can enjoy for years. Detail is very important. All three of these points are timeless. Thank you

[annekherself]

I just Got a confirmation once more, that my personal style through over 30 yrs still works and my clothes stil are classic and in my color sceme

[adeleturner]

Wise words from Christian Dior. Money does not equal style, fashion does not equal style. So very true. 💖💖💖

The pics of his sketches are breathtaking! So, so beautiful.

Marie-Anne, this comment is partly about your Dior video and partly, well, beyond. I love that you shared Dior's philosophy and how it fits in with the principles you teach. I was shopping today and thought more about the "details." But beyond this specific video, just wanted to thank you for the imprint you are leaving in this world. A positive voice. A fun approach to life, with clothing as a tool. A message of self-acceptance without complacency. Thank you. May you have a wonderful blessed Christmas and may God bless you more in 2020 than you could ask or imagine.

Marie you always share a special little bit that really means so much. I think that for those of us who appreciate the little things appreciate you and this channel the most.

Bonjour Marie-Anne! Perfect video and perfect advice! Everything you said speaks volumes and follows what I have practiced and learned from my own mother.... Back in the early 90’s I once once a Christian Dior winter wool coat. It was a “circle swing” coat with a Peter Pan collar. I actually was able to wear it throughout my pregnancy while I commuted back and forth in Manhattan for work... It was a beautiful shade of red .. wish I could remember what happened to

Fit + proportions +harmony = the most important secrets of style
Plus: the good knowledge of mixing colors & textures
Plus : minimalism

[lindyelliott]

This year, with your help, I have rediscovered a sense of my own style and, strange as it may sound, rediscovered a sense of myself. I wish you a very happy Christmas, Marie-Anne, and a wonderful New Year.

[tamiewert]

Watching your videos has given me a fresh perspective about style. I now look at clothing ads and I can pick out the details that either make the garment or detract from it! Merci!

[lucjagrabowska]

priceless, priceless tips Marie-Anne, thank you for sharing them with us..…. and this necklace of pearls combined with that black dress suits you so elegantly and beautifully

[zoerowntree]

Thank you Marie-Anne. Dior was one of the first designers whose patterns I used to make up when I was 17. I love all your videos, and I learned so much from couturier designers.

[teresawells]

I am so grateful for your channel. I am 70 and live in Southern California, where it’s really casual style.

[tonipope]

I appreciate all 3 of Diors quotes... and your explanations of those 3 are spot on. I think there are alot of ladies that would benefit from these 3 basic tenants... thank you!

Is there anything that Maison Dior don't do beautifully?? I went to Granville with my husband in October, visited the Dior Museum and spent the weekend in this little harbour town. The exhibition in the Dior Museum was about Grace Kelly and it brought home to me how influential she was, especially on style, fashion and the House of Dior, but also on the image of Monaco. Dior changed the way women dressed, just as Coco Chanel did. If we change how we dress, we change how we think of ourselves, how other people see us and even our lifestyle. It is an expression of who we are and in turn, helps shape who we will become.

I love the work of Christian Dior. His designs were so feminine and elegant. I want to see the CD exhibition in Paris someday and I read somewhere that there is a Musee Christian Dior in Granville that was his childhood home. Travel goals. Lovely video, Marie-Anne. Your outfit/look is a beautiful example of understated detail with the gather at the side of your top and your pearls.
