The Duchess Meets Raf Simons

The Duchess of Cornwall was given a tour of Dior´s Avenue Montaigne atelier yesterday, hosted by the label's CEO, Sidney Toledano. She also met with the label's creative director, Raf Simons.

The Duchess looked inside the fashion house's extensive archives, before being taken to the couture atelier where the category's director, Catherine Riviere, introduced her to the craftsmen and women who are responsible for creating Dior's most expensive and intricately-made pieces.

The visit comes as part of Camilla's first official solo overseas trip to Paris - a two-day sojourn which ended yesterday. While in the city, she also made an appearance at the Louvre, posing for photographs next to the Mona Lisa, and took a stroll around a local market.
