Meet Jean Dawnay, Dior's English rose

Jean Dawnay, or 'Caroline' as she was known, was a house model for Dior during the years 1949 - 50. Her transformation from 'frumpy' post-war English model to polished Dior mannequin saw her become one of the original supermodels. Her daughter, Princess Katya Galitzine, discusses her Mother's Dior years, the infamous British fashion shows and her fondness for Christian Dior, himself.

Love the elegance of that time. So beautiful. No wonder retro is so popular today.

That was an era of elegance and grace that we will never see again. Loved this video, I could watch a whole documentary on the fashions and designers and muses of this time.

Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?
