The store is on 57th and 5th, next door to the women's Dior boutique. Someday I'll make a trip there - if only to make fun of the pretensious sales staff...

Actually Peter whom works at Dior Homme is very helpful and always informs me to when new stuff comes in....
Colin who works in the Dior Jewelry dept on the womens side is extremly nice and helpful also.
If you want pictures of the NY Dior Boutique just go to dior.com... (the dressing rooms breath while you change)

Can you tell us why you are so obsessesed with him? The guy is a joke, and he knows it. This is not to flame you personally, please take no offense, I just don't understand someone's obsession with someone so inane. Maybe I'm missing something?

I personally think that Orlan is insane. Her "work," if you can even call it that, is disturbing and disgusting. That woman needs some serious help...

 

[Acid]

who is that she certainly looks insane
she should play the role as a nutty professor

 

[marrimoda]

It surprises me that a real/licensed plastic surgeon would perform these "artistic surgeries" on her -- dont they have a statement of ethics they follow on only operating where there is a perceived flaw that is considered resonable...I mean this is her body to mutilate if she chooses as an art, but to involve a surgeon seems like some malpractice issues would come into play.

interesting...but not enough for me to appreciate...

 

[Lena]

i'm not an Orlane fan, and i dont wish us start talking art in a Hedi's party thread, but i think one should carefully see her huge body of work before starting throwing ridicule on her .. or call her insane. See her work and read her manifesto's , its a huge body of work...

like most artists -through out history of contemorary art- she's aiming to be disturbing, this is a part of her cultural message to today's 'transforming' society.
