An extremely rare and ultra sophisticated Christian Dior black silk-taffeta and silk-crepe skirted cocktail dress dating back to his lifetime 1956 spring-summer collection. Although Dior’s legacy has continued to shape style over the decades, the designer only commandeered his own fashion house for a mere ten years before his tragic death in 1957. This dress belongs to one of the last highly coveted collections he oversaw. Here is a rare opportunity to own a breathtaking Dior numbered original designed by Dior himself for the Europe export market before he passed away. Garments with this rare label were made for international clients who could not go in for multiple fittings at the Paris atelier. This meticulously constructed beauty consists of a black silk crepe fitted hourglass dress with a lavish silk taffeta portrait collar and overskirt. The dramatic oversized portrait neckline collar with bow detail is such a gorgeous look iconic to this era. Dior’s celebrated 'New Look' silhouette, which revolutionized post-World War II fashion with its emphasis on softness and femininity, accentuates the natural female figure. The skirt’s multiple layers can be pushed back to reveal the fitted fabric underneath—a striking surprise that can be shown off in photographs. The designer once said, “I think of my work as ephemeral architecture, dedicated to the beauty of the female body.” This epic archival lifetime Christian Dior cocktail dress is a testament to his philosophy.
