Btw if anyone else was drooling over the pink silk dress from the 1962 collection, christies recently sold one for £5,000. So we'll all have to start saving yesterday.
that's actually not that bad for a vintage designer piece...not that I have that kind of money. Spent every last penny of my lousy stub on college bills
as a francophone the fact you are putting any effort into trying to pronounce the french words right is a lot better than most and it is greatly appreciated
They take so much time and unfortunately don’t get enough views to make them worth producing a lot :( I love them but sometimes they flop so hard they don’t feel worth it
@@hautelemode you gotta hit the perfect topic that the algorithm will push, and people will flood your channel looking for similar content and watch these vids. IDK what topic that would be, but keep trying! and don't give up!
@@hautelemode it's a real shame that these videos don't do as well but I feel you should continue with them, have them not be you're main focus(get that ad sense sis) but as something that exists for the people who are passionate about fashion
@@hautelemode I also found you via your amazing videos on the history of McQueen. I hope there is room for both more fashion history videos and the view generators. That being said, your Say Yes to the Dress reviews slay me.
I love the historical stuff you do. If you focused on Jackie Kennedy and her role as a style icon for the Met gala, First Lady looks, and street style, I think it would be really cool!!!!
Those early 60s gowns made my jaw drop! I feel like the section focused on his work in the V&A exhibition left me with an impression that most of his work was dated 80s looks, so thank you for going through his personal progression so well!
I was lucky enough to find a Marc Bohan-era Christian Dior RTW jacket in a thrift store and let me tell you! The perfect stitching, the cut... Ah, it's such a wonderful piece 😍😩
Love your channel and your reference to Klimt. What most people do not realize is that Klimt's work was inspired by the work of fashion designer lover Emilie Floge. Her work deserves to be remembered in it's own right and come out from Klimt's shadow. Emilie Floge deserves your attention.
Leo as another American, why are you so angry? There was nothing condescending or rude about the French person’s comment. Please don’t give us even worse a reputation than we already have
@@k-popbiased1058 Thank you so much for your kind words they are very much appreciated! I have been many times in the United States and I absolutely love your country and its people! Bless you and stay safe!
@@insertnamehere917 about 1966,for here in the US..my Mom around that time would also get dressed up in heels and dresses to go play weekly bridge with her friends, women were just beginning to look to working outside of home full time,but "homemaker" was still thought of as an occupation. Women were driving the fashion styles for everyone in the family daily , before that no child or teen thought about buying their own clothing ,and probably not many men haha ..women's lib, pop music , influenced society ..Men would buy cars and get jobs,decide where to live, women would decide most of the other things ..Grandparents would always be dressed up in those days ,hats always
Bohan also had great success with his hommage to Dr Zivago collection, which featured fox edged wool sleeveless tunics with Bermuda length pants and tall boots. You are right when you said he was a client designer that was his job to make money for the house. One interesting thing, he was a great fan of Yohji Yamamoto and only wore Yohji men's collections to work every day apart from official engagements or presentations when he wore a traditional saville row tailored suit. He also loved the work of Romeo Gigli and thought it poetic and inspiring in its volumes.
These videos are always my favorite because they are like a bridge between fashion and people who find great interest in it but don’t necessarily have the time or the chance to seek out this kind of information. Thank you for doing them, it must take a lot of time and effort.
i love these fashion history/icons kinda videos. i would DIE if u made one about david bowie he is literally one of the most influential fashion icons of the music industry
This is exactly what we all need, thank you for this impeccable video on such a revered legend... hoping to see more of such kind perhaps for a longer duration undoubtedly .... thank you Luke...
As artistic director of the DIOR House, in my opinion there has been no one like the great Gianfranco FERRÉ. He not only renewed the image and gave it a new air of supreme elegance, respecting like no one else the insignia of the House in each of his creations, but he also resurrected the authentic Christian Dior of his best time while stamping his inimitable stamp.
I am so glad to run across this video remembering Marc Bohan. He was a very gracious man and great designer that should be honored. I worked with him in 1986-87 as I was hired by Dior to design the first Dior 2 Collections produced by the Italian manufacturer of designer brands GFT. It was when Mr. Arnault first came to the company and was also the 40th year anniversary of The New Look.
I love these informative videos on the fashion houses and their respective creative directors. Marc’s Dior is simply stunning and timeless. I would love a video on Gianfranco Ferre’s Dior and career. I think he needs to be shown some love. Thank you Luke 🤍
I enjoy these videos soooo much!! Your commentary is the right amount of class and sass. And let’s be honest we could all use a lot more sass these days. Can’t wait to see more!!
I have always loved this type of videos from you. This and your reaction videos. But more to this type because i just love the history of fashion. Keep on doing this type of video moreeeee
IMO Marc never received the credit he is due. He was a talented and elegant designer in the vein of Givenchy. He was there fir the launch of the original Eau Sauvage.
Amazing video 💗💗💗💗💗 As a craftsperson myself, I would love a video on your favourite craftpieces from different collections. Not fashion or style wise, just pieces that you admire for their complexity and the skill that went into them. Maybe divided into construction /embroidery/innovation/....?
At the time I wasn't sure why Bohan was let go - I just loved his creations, and thought Ferre was another world, interesting & talented, but not up to Dior's level. I did come to appreciate what he brought to the label, but they definitely should have let Marc bow out gracefully. Oh well, that's show biz.
Beatrice Bongibault had been hired by Arnault- from Chanel I think -to run Dior and like all new heads of a business she wanted to make an impact and had Bohan fired and replaced by Ferre.
Marc Bohan is one of the least talked about designers at Dior but he survived the longest. It took around 10 years for Christian Dior to create a legend, YSL pushed it forward too much; he was one of those designers that worked best under his own label, Marc Bohan made sure to solidify Dior's commercial succes by adapting it to the changing times after failing to succeed with his own label, Gianfranco Ferré brought his dramatic Italian flair but apparently never made a real profit, Galliano renewed with the spirit of Christian Dior while making the brand contemporary, Raf streamlined everything, even himself and Maria Grazia is doing something along the lines of Marc Bohan. She might be here to stay for quite a while. She's Italian like Ferré but she brings in the money.
Am I the only one that screamed when editing Luke came on screen @19:26 🥺🥺🥺😍😍😍😧 like omfg LUKEEEEEEE I need that black cutout one shoulder top in my lifeeeee
I love the deep dives into fashion history! You made a comment about appropriation in fashion being at least 50 years old, and I thought that would be a really interesting topic. I know early 1920s fashion trends had both Egyptian and Far Eastern appropriation, but don't know if anything came before that.
Will you ever make a video about Galliano at Dior? You are always so respectful and acknowledge appropriation even when talking about clothes from a time when appropriation was not being talked about ❤️ It would be interesting to hear what you have to say about Galliano's time at Dior whilst acknowledging his questionable past
The way I love the history of fashion even though I am not that into it but Luke has such a art of speaking and sucking you in!! LOVE YOU LUKEE!!! A big Fan since you were a little youtuber !!^^
The French word 'hyménée,' while translating as 'nuptial bond,' actually does have an etymological connection to the hymen. It's because marriage was socially constructed as a contract with a prospective virgin, who was pure and untainted. It roots itself in a very misogynistic approach to what a bride (and a woman) should be in order to be redeemed as proper and respectable. The word also signifies a patriarchal stronghold, both in use of language and the imprisonment of female genitalia to his rightful bond---through the wedding night and marriage as a whole.
Pierre Cardin sportwear… OMG !! I loooove Pierre Cardin shirts ! In the 70's my mom used to be dressed by Pierre Cardin ready to wear ! From the glasses to the shoes ! Very good tastes congrats boy !
It is so awesome to hear you speak on fashion. You seem so young yet your encyclopedia of knowledge of real fashion history is the real thing! You, i predict, will some day be working as a professor at one of the top design schools or a design director of the Met! It is fantastic that you share all of your knowledge hopefully teaching the history of high fashion over the 20th and 21st centuries to many new generations that may have never had the chance to so easily learn. You seem unbiased yet have a distinct point of view. Point of view of high quality and design. It is like you have lived for 100 years studying the trends and players of our fashion history. And the best part... It is so easy to see that it is your true passion for fashion and fashion history that drives you. You are helping fashion be understood and remembered. As they say in fashion... nothing is new. Well, you help us see where and when that is true. I am probably 20 years older than you and have studied fashion most of my life and i have to say it is so impressive to hear you speak. keep up the great fashion work!
It’s funny how the most discret designer at dior is the one that lasted the longest and brought a big clientele to the brand we know today, reserved but is at the start of many things and lines at dior
Marc Bohan was a genius and also because he was part of a pocket or brand that was outstanding for its time Christian Dior.. I also enjoyed your passion for the story.
So interesting!! 😍❤️ Btw does anyone here remember the 1992 movie "Mrs. 'arris Goes to Paris" starring the legendary Angela Lansbury? I love that it was all focused on Dior, and all the outfits that were featured in the film.
This and the McQueen and the other these "genre" videos were so interesting to watch.Please make more of these
Yes! More biographical content please Luke! 🥺
yess that would be amazing :)
YASSS
McQueen was the best
You look like a Bond villain if one of the movies where to be taking place in the 1996 Olympic Games.
this is a compliment i am willing to take!!
I am thinking more like a Guy Richie movie from the 90's.
I think he looks more like Chandler Bing in season 3
That was so specific and yet so accurate.
Can you comment on more videos please?
Spot on

Literally been waiting for this all day
I’m so happy and hope you enjoy!!!
😍😍😍love you sooooo much
"Cutting edge designs cut into the company's bottom line" sheesh, absolute BARS🔥🔥
Can we take a moment to appreciate how very HOT Marc Bohan was and STAYED beginning to end! Damn!
Okay but the word hyménée actually derives from hymen, which makes sense given that the dress has kind of a vag shape
Only History classes where I’m not gonna sleep 😴

Because.

great history lesson ...I remember when people used to dress up to go on a train or an airplane lol and yes that meant with gloves too baby
out of curiosity, do you remember about what time people stopped dressing up?

yes, i am a pervert, but “hymen” & “hyménée” have the same etymological root, just saying…
Hymen is also the god of marriage.
The look of the dress said it all....

Fascinating thank you. Wonderful video! Gorgeous fashion
