CHRISTIAN Dior's love of the cinema is reflected in a collection that appears like four scenes from different films.
'The first one goes back to Dior's native town of Granville, so it is about the sea, yachts and horse racing. It has a joyful spirit,' said Rachel Erler, the general manager.
It is a casual resort look with nautical touches and there is an emphasis on blue.
Key items are casual cotton jackets - checked or striped - that can be worn with cotton trousers and a tie featuring a nautical or marine motif.
Casual shirts are striped, while long-sleeved round-neck cotton sweaters have small yacht motifs on the front.
For the next scene, designer Patrick Lavoix imagines Humphrey Bogart in Paris and takes his cue from the actor's inimitable style.
