GOLD STANDARD: “Life isn’t black and white; it’s gold.” With this iconic line, model Carmen Kass introduced Dior’s J’Adore fragrance in 1999, setting the tone for the brand’s enduring fascination with gold. This passion, shared by founder Christian Dior and his artistic successors, is the focus of a new exhibition in Beijing, celebrating the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between France and China.
The “L’Or de Dior” retrospective will be held at the Guardian Art Center from Sept. 2 to 29. It will showcase a selection of pieces from the archives of Parfums Christian Dior and Christian Dior Couture, along with exclusive works by Chinese and international artists, the house announced Tuesday.
