An excerpt from the article (published on Feb 2025):

“If growing a year wiser always looks like Heart Evangelista, then we’ll have it! On the fashion star’s *40th birthday shoot*, Heart is seen wearing an intricate tan embellished dress. But it’s not just any dress. It’s actually a custom Dior Haute Couture look from Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Spring/Summer 2023 collection.”

**So how much does a Christian Dior Haute Couture dress cost?**

The cost of Haute Couture pieces created by fashion houses are confidential and never revealed to the public. However, in 2016, a French documentary was released in which Catherine Riviere, the woman in charge of all Haute Couture at Dior (she shared that she was in charge “from the moment the collections are created to the moment the client paid her bill”) shared some estimated cost information.

Catherine shared that **a Dior Haute Couture “simple” dress cost between €40,000 and €80,000**, while **an “elaborate” dress – generally wedding dresses – would cost around €150,000 to €200,000**. The policy at Dior is to set prices that match the number of hours that it took to create the dress, so if a dress took a staggering 500-600 hours of embroidery or hand-detailing, the cost would reflect that.  It’s also been revealed in the past that the average time it takes to create a Dior Haute Couture dress is an impressive 135 hours.

**Thank you, taxpayers!!**
