A Life Well Layered:
Fashion, Interiors & the Garden
Cordelia de Castellane
Friday, January 8 | 11 a.m.
Cordelia de Castellane believes that beauty is meant to be lived every day. As Artistic Director of DIOR Maison and Baby DIOR, she embodies her philosophy by creating a life that feels both collected and personal—from the clothes we wear to the homes we create and the gardens that inspire us. Cordelia will reflect on the pieces, places and traditions that have shaped her distinctive point of view, and why true style is never confined to a single era.
