exhibition \u2018Christian Dior, Memories of Childhood\u2019<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>Following \u2018Enchanted Gardens\u2019 in 2025, the exhibition \u2018Christian Dior, Memories of Childhood\u2019 traces the couturier\u2019s early years in the seaside resort at the start of the 20th century. He grew up in Villa Les Rhumbs, the family home overlooking the sea, which became a museum in 1997.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy life and my style owe almost everything to its location and architecture,\u201d Christian Dior emphasised in his memoirs, published in 1956.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exhibition\u2019s narrative illustrates how Christian Dior\u2019s memories as a young boy \u2013 and later as a young man \u2013 shaped his creative choices. His fondness for shades of grey and pink, the art of dressing up, his taste for beachwear and his attraction to English patterns are all characteristics linked to his native land. These have been reinterpreted by the various creative directors of the House of Dior who succeeded him following his death in 1957, from Yves Saint Laurent to Jonathan Anderson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nearly 250 items have been brought together: dresses, perfumes, photographs, paintings, advertising materials, audio clips\u2026 Over a hundred come from the collection of the Christian Dior Museum. Loans have also been provided by Dior H\u00e9ritage (the fashion house\u2019s archives department), the Granville Museum of Art and History, the Azzedine Ala\u00efa Foundation, and the Cin\u00e9math\u00e8que Fran\u00e7aise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brigitte Richart, curator of the Christian Dior Museum and chief curator of the exhibition<br>Barbara Jeauffroy-Mairet, academic curator<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On display from 4 April to 1 November 2026.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-neutral-1-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">    <div\n                class=\"pgut-cta-box pgut-clickable align wp-block-powergut-cta-box\"    >\n        <div class=\"pgut-cta-box__content pgut__d__flex pgut-flex__fd__column pgut-flex__jc__center\">\n            <div class=\"pgut-cta-box__title\"><h2>Priority access to the Christian Dior Museum<\/h2>\n<\/div>                <div class=\"pgut-cta-box__description\">\n                    <p>In order to make the utmost of the <em>Dior, Enchanting Gardens exhibition<\/em>, anticipate your visit: opening hours, tickets, rates, etc.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"pgut-cta-box__btn-container\">\n                    <a class=\"pgut-cta-box__link pgut-button pgut-button__not-custom-icon pgut-button__default pgut-icon__add pgut-icon__add__reverse align wp-block-powergut-button\"\n                       href=\"https:\/\/www.musee-dior-granville.com\/en\/preparing-visit\/\"\n                                                aria-label=\"Prepare your visit\"                    >\n                        Prepare your visit                    <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-neutral-1-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Over 25 years of exhibitions at the Christian Dior Museum<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every year, the Christian Dior Museum organises a temporary exhibition on a new theme.

Three stopovers, laid out on the villa\u2019s three floors, bear witness to the creativity of the great couturier, who was largely influenced by his Granville childhood, and the extension of the Dior empire\u2019s borders to all four corners of the world.

The exhibition paid tribute to Christian Dior himself, his talent, refinement and the taste for costume shaped by the Granville Carnival, all of which expressed themselves at the grandest of post-war balls. The balls the couturier attended included the Ball of Kings and Queens in 1949, where he appeared dressed as &#8220;King of the Animals&#8221;, the Artists\u2019 Ball in 1956, where he dressed himself up as a dandy, and the Masks and Dominos Ball hosted by Charles de Beistegui at the Palazzo Labia in Venice in 1951, described as the ball of the century.<\/p>\n<p>Curatorship: Jean-Luc Dufresne, Heritage Curator and Scientific Advisor at the Christian Dior Museum.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Dior Grand Ball&#8221; catalogue.
