Dior and I is a new documentary directed by Frédéric Tcheng, who cut his teeth on Diana Vreeland: The Eye has to Traveland Valentino: the Last Emperor.

His film offers a rare look into the inner workings of the haute couture fashion house, founded by Christian Dior in 1946, as Raf Simons became its new creative director.

Among many revelations is the instrumental role of the seamstresses in the Dior atelier in the creation of the house's luxurious designs.

Dior and I will be screened for a limited time at select theaters in Los Angeles. Click here for full list of theaters showing the film in Los Angeles.
