Dior is the Paris fashion house founded in 1946 by Christian Dior that produces Dior sunglasses.
Christian Dior established his couture house in Paris after working with established designers and textile businesses. His first collection, presented in 1947, became associated with a dramatic, highly feminine silhouette later known as the “New Look.”
Dior’s product range expanded beyond haute couture to include ready-to-wear clothing, leather goods, jewelry, fragrances and eyewear. Dior sunglasses are marketed as luxury fashion accessories and often combine the brand’s couture styling with seasonal runway themes.
The name can cause confusion because the company has used several related labels, including Christian Dior and Dior Homme. The sunglasses brand is identified simply as Dior in current fashion branding, while the founding designer’s full name is Christian Dior.
