Born to a wealthy family, Dior first succumbed to family pressure and pursued a degree in Political Science before opening his own art gallery. When the gallery failed and his family's fortunes declined, he joined the army. After leaving the army, he began sketching for fashion magazines and eventually began working for the House of Lucien Lelong, where he became an assistant designer. During the war years, his clients included the occupying Nazi officer's wives, but his sister Catherine worked for the resistance and he occasionally helped her in her work. A popular legend claims he named his 1947 perfume in her honor, which was called Miss Dior.
