You will be able to see how the famous lady Dior bag is made by hand. The men's workshop will give you "a lesson" in tailoring. Miss Dior, the first fragrance of Dior was also launched in 1947. Dior wanted to issue perfumes to match its new fashions. Miss Dior was named for the designer's sister Catherine. Perfume experts will introduce you to the different scents. You will also be able to see embroidery, shoe making, the technique to assemble a watch, high jewelery... We have previously been to this exact same presentation and it was incredible to see how all those artisans work. We actually "helped" in making a watch. We highly recommend it!
