The House of Dior has been an enduring icon of Haute-Couture. When the talented Marc Bohan took over as head designer in 1960, he continued the Dior tradition of elegant design. This beautiful mod military style coat is a perfect example of his talent. The fabric used for this garment is breathtaking; a dark forest green silk corduroy blend. The coat has a chic back-belt and lean, long sleeves. As shown, the double-breasted design can transform the look of the coat. As Dior said, "I will only say now that elegance must be the right combination of distinction, naturalness, care and simplicity." This timeless treasure is a wonderful mix of these elements.
