Marc Bohan

It amazes me sometimes the wealth of culture our little region has to offer, and just how unique it can be.

Recently we were lucky enough to visit an exhibition in Châtillon-sur-Seine for the designer Marc Bohan. Bohan was the creative director at Dior during his nearly 30 year career at the house, and among his many achievements were his unique designs for princess Grace of Monaco.

Bohan had his home in Châtillon, so it was fitting that an exhibition of his work should be held there. What was incredible about it was that the family of princess Grace offered some of her most beautiful haute couture outfits for display for the first time ever. What a coup!

It was a spectacular exhibition, that felt almost private in its intimacy and lack of crowds. A truly ‘once in a lifetime’ event for us, and a perfect example of why we love our little piece of France so much.
