Speaking about the inspiration behind reviving the Baby Dior line, Dior's perfume creation director, Francis Kurkdjian, revealed his admiration for the original baby care products. "Christian Dior evoked his childhood many times as a very happy and joyful period of his life," he told Women's Wear Daily. "The scent and the baby care line were discontinued, and I was eager to bring it back to life as a tribute."
After collaborating with Baby Dior's artistic director, Cordelia de Castellane, Kurkdjian realized they both shared a vision of revitalizing the collection — and the new Baby Dior line was born.
