Arts:Fashion & Beauty
Today we are podcasting LIVE from Paris!
Haute couture embroidery designer, archivist and author Nadia Albertini joins us to discuss her 3-year project (and book!) uncovering the forgotten history of the French embroidery house of Rébé, who created some of the most spectacular embroideries used by Christian Dior, Hubert de Givenchy and Cristóbal Balenciaga.
RECOMMENDED READING: Albertini, Nadia. Rébé: broderies haute couture. Montreuil, France: Gourcuff Graden, 2021.
