The proper white-gloved society women were on their best behavior until Dior created a dress with a plunging neckline dubbed the "cocktail dress" , a part of his evening collection , a new look which was very glamorous and it consisted of strapless boned tops with full skirts and were ultra feminine. Now in this "new look" of 1947 Christian Dior presented a fashion look that was a dramatic change from the wartime styles. After the rationing of fabric during the second World War Dior's lavish use of material was not only bold , but a shocking stroke.  Dior's timing made his name in fashion. After the war women longed for frivolity in dress and desired feminine clothes that didn't look like a civilian version of the military uniform. Dior's new look dominated the fashion world for about 10 years. This started a new era in Hollywood and Fashion , as the years progressed so did the fashion and the women wearing it , women were becoming more and more comfortable with looking like a woman while maintaining high social status with big names such as Christian Dior.
