Christian Dior's childhood home in Granville expresses his love for nature and flowers. The villa indeed displays hundreds of floral, classic, or evening models. The whole is punctuated by pictures of the Dior family in the early 20th century and the Belle Époque. Dior said that the garden and its roses made him want to create stem-women, flower-women, and corolla dresses. The fragrances he created were also influenced by roses and lilies of the valley.
