Stunning Dior Haute Couture

Every so often, we come across a dress that is, to invoke an overused cliché, priceless. This particular piece unites two of the most venerated figures of 20th century fashion: it was designed by a young Yves Mathieu Saint Laurent in his second haute couture collection for the house of Dior, Spring/Summer 1959. The artistry apparent in the garment's construction--intricate floral lace, elaborate bodice, layered skirt--is scarcely replicated today, even within the realm of haute couture. Patrons of Yves Saint Laurent or Christian Dior are certain to find this a formidable addition to any collection.





Christian Dior Haute Couture by Yves Saint Laurent Ivory Floral Lace Dress with Wide Ribbon Tie, P/E 1959. Extremely delicate, fits a size 2 to small 4. SOLD
