Everywhere you look, makers are reimagining mirrors for our times, be it by subverting the opulent tastes of the late 18th-century European aristocracy or by paring the familiar shape of a Master Lock down to its most basic elements.<\/p>\n<p>The trend isn\u2019t only reflected in home decor, though. For <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/christian-dior\/\">Dior<\/a>\u2019s Spring 2018 collection, presented at the Mus\u00e9e Rodin in Paris, creative director <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BZgVXZVlq-1\/?hl=en&amp;taken-by=dior\">Maria Grazia Chiuri devised a literal hall of mirrors<\/a>. The feat took 80 people 20 days to build, not to mention 80,000 pieces of mirror and 7.2 tons of concrete. Models strutted down the catwalk in striped shirts emblazoned with the question \u201cWhy have there been no great women artists?\u201d and Chiuri\u2019s feminist collection seemed as much fodder for the Snapchat generation as a commentary on the societal standards women feel they have to live up to.<\/p>\n<p>So are designers distorting mirrors to wink at our selfie-obsessed culture? Does it matter? These pieces look chic, and there\u2019s something for everyone. Here, we\u2019ve rounded up five standout mirrors, along with thoughts from their creators on how to hang them.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/barberini-and-gunnell\/furniture\/mirrors\/?q=rococo\">Rococut Mirrors by Barberini &amp; Gunnell<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/barberini-and-gunnell\/furniture\/mirrors\/?q=rococo\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-260673\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/rococut_mirrors_1_barberiniandgunnell_lI.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"442\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/rococut_mirrors_1_barberiniandgunnell_lI.jpg 761w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/rococut_mirrors_1_barberiniandgunnell_lI-538x350.jpg 538w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/rococut_mirrors_1_barberiniandgunnell_lI-120x78.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Consisting of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/barberini-and-gunnell\/furniture\/mirrors\/?q=rococo\">four different mirrors<\/a>, each with an aristocratic name like Marchese or Barone, the limited-edition Rococut series pokes fun at European nobles by embedding gilded Rococo-style frames with glass that appears to have been \u201ccut by a sword,\u201d notes designer Nina Alexandra Gunnell.
