Brand heritage

The house of Christian Dior was founded in Paris in 1946. Dior eyewear began in 1969 under licence with the German maker Optyl, and in 1970 the house launched its men's line, Christian Dior Monsieur. Monsieur frames from the 1970s and 1980s, especially the gold-filled metal aviators, are sought after by collectors today.
