At Dior, at the Palazzo Citterio, it is the famous medallion chair, Louis XVI style with its oval file, in which Couturier Christian Dior Asked his guests during his haute couture parades, which takes the place of filiation between yesterday and today.Seventeen designers imagined its descendants in 2021: Translucent chair in the colors of English Jelly by the Japanese studio Nendo, classic wooden armchair but with intertwined arms in a sensual round by Sam Baron or foldable chair that stands once folded (achallenge) by Constance Guisset.

Like a nicely sausage racing horse

New to the world of the house, the Lebanese stylist Elie Saab, known for his Parisian haute couture parades full of princess dresses, presented a first infinite, baroque style chair, in black nickel or golden brass.Opulence as it should.
