Christian Dior's universe is rife with cosmic references, such as Pleine Lune (Full Moon, a dinner dress from Spring-Summer 1950) and stars that foretold his life's adventure, which lives on even in his absence. Christian Dior also named one of his embroidered dresses Astrée (Astraea), which bore the number 18 (8 being his lucky number), after the star-maiden of Greek mythology and the lost goddess to live among mortals.
