The Dior Gallery bears witness to the inventiveness of the founding couturier and his successors: Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, John Galliano, Raf Simons, Maria Grazia Chiuri, and now Jonathan Anderson, appointed in June 2025 as Artistic Director of the Women’s collections, Man and Haute Couture by Dior. His modernity thus enters into dialogue with that of his predecessors, offering a contemporary reading of the Dior look.

Thirteen themed rooms in turn bring to light what constitutes the very essence of Dior. From the enchantment of gardens to the magic of balls, from the timelessness of the little black dress to the creative freedom of the Diorling ready-to-wear line: launched in London in 1968 by Jorn Landberg, Artistic Director of Christian Dior London, it offers a young and easy-to-wear fashion, which reflects the spirit of a new society guided by the pop culture of the "Swinging Sixties".

The course also seeks to reveal the founding elements of haute couture: the invention of the Dior look, the magic of the canvases that precede the choice of fabrics, the technique essential to the construction of models erected as true architectures or the luxury of ornamentation, whose purpose is to "ennoble" the line: this is the case with the art of knotting, which lent itself to a multitude of variations at Christian Dior and his successors, to the point of symbolizing the extreme refinement of the Dior style. Finally, the variety of essential accessories hats, bags, gloves, shoes, perfumes punctuates the wardrobe of a woman who declines from morning to evening.

Within the walls of 30 Montaigne are created, since 1947, the haute couture collections of the House, starting with the New Look, first collection of Christian Dior at the origin of a revolution in the history of the silhouette after the Second World War.
