LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Apple TV+'s biographical drama series, 'The New Look' chronicles the rise of fashion designer Christian Dior (Ben Mendelsohn) and his encounters with Coco Chanel.

Furthermore, it also examines the remarkable life of Christian's younger sister, Catherine Dior (Maisie Williams). 

Catherine, motivated by a strong sense of justice, was a significant player in the French resistance struggle against the Nazis.

Nonetheless, Catherine is caught by the Germans and is forced to undergo the horrors of confinement after she finds herself in concentration camps.

Even after being released, she still suffers from the trauma but is gradually and slowly recuperating.

It was pretty clear from the onset of the series that Catherine and Hervé des Charbonneries (Hugo Becker) both work for the resistance and are also passionate lovers. 

They shared the same mission of pushing the Germans away from French soil and collaborated together. 

However, their lives seemingly took a drastic turn when the Germans detained Catherine and transferred her to a concentration camp. 

Hervé collaborated with other resistance workers to blow up the rail tracks carrying Catherine and the other inmates as a ruse to release her from the Nazi grasp.

Sadly, his plan fell flat and he couldn't rescue Catherine.

In the latest episode of the series, it is shown that even after returning from the clutches of the Germans, Catherine is struggling to integrate into her usual life.

Christian also worked tirelessly to ease his sister's pain and she does open up, but not like she did with Hervé. 

After learning about Catherine's homecoming, Hervé was one of the few people who paid a visit to her.

Catherine was initially scared by his presence but gradually opened up to him.

The brave lady told Hervé about her captivity at Ravensbrück. He listened to her and attempted to distract her from the agony she was going through.

'The New Look' is now streaming on Apple TV+
