Скачать или смотреть Forensic Sewing - Junon Christian Dior Deep Dive: How it's made, history, and embellishment

Welcome back to Forensic Sewing! Today's episode is a MASSIVE deep dive into Christian Dior's 1949 Junon dress! I love these deep dives, and Junon has certainly inspired so many of us. Let me know in the comments what you think of the series - of course, the structure can change if it needs to - and as always, let me know what we should cover next!

Character limit is keeping me from citing all sources, but here are a few of the biggest ones - if you have questions about any facts I am happy to direct you to individual sources as requested! The first link in this list specifically is the one that talks most about the sequin restoration, and it also has the Grover Magnin newspaper interview if you'd like to read the whole thing!
