The Secret Garden 2 - Dior's Fall 2013 video campaign


The Parisian Dior house since ever reveled a clear passion for gardens and flowers. Christian Dior loved is garden and flowers from his childhood house in Granville.

Raf Simons, Dior's creative director has also shown this same passion in the presentation of his high couture collections, and for the presentation of new 2013 F/W season Dior just released a new short film the Secret Garden 2- Versaillestakes as an extension of last years film Secret Garden - Versailles.


This short film was shoot in the Versailles Palace and  again directed by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin. Presenting the super model Daria Strokous, she leads the enchanted film has a reincarnation of Marie Antoniette running trough the Palace and exploring the site's grounds and park, ending herself in a enchanted forest surrounded by fairies while beautifully dressed in sophisticated, luscious Dior creations for the next pre fall season.

I'm a huge fan of Depeche Mode so i just loved the music in the film background! Just perfect to embrace the mystical scenario while the girl is running the endless corridors and gardens with stunning statement jewelry, neon bags and breathtaking dreamy dresses.


"The heart of the royal land conceals an extraordinary world of poetry and color: in the depth of its mysterious woods a secret garden blooms out of sight, inhabited by flower-women."

The inspiration also has a deep root in art with one of the scenes inspired in the famed painting 'Luncheon on the Grass' by Édouard Manet, painted between 1862-1863.



The result is amazing...a great recreation trough the mix of different art eras.
