From the Dior Boutique collection comes this gorgeous little silk dress in a beautiful floral pattern made of shades of pink screened onto a lovely silk taffeta. I believe this is from the Galliano era and is a wonderful example of how he could be pretty and romantic while executing a sharply cut design. You often see a nod to the fifties and sixties in his work for Dior during this time period and never more so here with this silhouette. It is so easy to wear and has a delightful retro and feminine feel to it. The silk taffeta is as light as a feather and this choice of fabric allows the lines and fullness to hold its shape without having to add any interior structure. It bodice skims over the torso and has pretty flat bows at the top of the shoulder. The waist cinches softly in and you could define it further by adding a belt. The skirt is stunning and seems to float around you with a lovely fullness to its shape. It is gorgeous! Excellent condition
