Pressezitat
"Spanning de Castellane s colourful career at Dior so far, it is a voyage through her ground-breaking designs from the neon-bright, writhing, flower explosion of the Belladone Island collection shown at the Orangerie Museum in Paris in 2007 to her witty bejewelled skulls or the beautifully menacing Milly Carnivora blooms. Divided into two sections, the first is an alphabetical collection of her favourite words, concepts and ideas illustrated with her kooky pencil sketches, often featuring Mr Christian Dior himself. C gives us carnivore, cocktail and crowns, a fitting welcome to the wonderful world of Victoire. The second half is dedicated to photographs of jewels which beam out from the glossy black pages and is almost as good seeing the real thing." THEJEWELLERYEDITOR.COM"She enchants with her jewelry and evokes an immediate response that causes you to do a double-take and continue to examine the details as more and more are revealed in each piece. Dior Joaillerie: The Dictionary Of Victoire De Castellane By Victoire de Castellane with text by Olivier Gabet (Rizzoli New York , release date: December 2020) has captured all of this feeling and more."

more than 20 years, offers bon mots, musings and sage advice in a riff on the alphabet. A is for asymmetry, which is much more difficult than symmetry ; T is trompe l oeil, which proves that realism does not prevent imagination, ; and perhaps best of all, N is for no : A word I never heard in our jewelry ateliers for everything is possible there. ...There follows a word-free display of de Castellane s rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings jewelry in all its colorful musings and imagination. At no surprise there is a feeling for texture and movement in her personal collection, a fitting nod to Dior s importance and legacy. de Castellane fuses gemstones with fashion in a way the great couturier would doubtless embrace."
