A breathtaking and totally ethereal Christian Dior pale ballerina slipper pink silk chiffon bias-cut gown. This incredibly rare Christian Dior treasure from John Galliano's 2002 spring-summer collection is a perfect example of his genius. Vogue stated about the collection, "His bias-cut silk and lace dresses, embroidered jackets and sheer tops will work better than ever in this season of unbridled romanticism!" John Galliano is widely considered one of the most innovative and influential fashion designers of the early twenty-first century. He mingled his references in often surprising juxtapositions to create extravagant yet intricately engineered and meticulously tailored clothes. This gown is everything you look for in Galliano era Dior. The fabric itself is a masterpiece; semi-sheer pale pink silk chiffon with sparkling silver-toned glass beadwork in the most beautiful art deco motif. The relaxed low-cut scoop neck plunge bodice has an effortless vibe that I find irresistible. Closes with elegant side covered buttons. Such a nod to 1930's design. The tiered layer skirting gives the gown a perfect amount of movement. A flattering bias-cut flows to the ground in a ultra flattering hourglass. This construction emphasizes a woman's seductive shape without adding any bulk or volume to the actual hips. You will reach for this Dior anytime you want to look sensational. A rare wearable piece of fashion history.
