Minimalist Spring 1977 Christian Dior by Marc Bohan Haute Couture Red Silk Jersey Dress w Button Back The 2020s During the Spanish Civil warI acquired this dress many years ago from the estate of a model who worked for Dior in the 1970s and was often paid in clothing. Somewhere along the way this one lost it's Dior tag and only has the hand written model tag. We did source the editorial photo of it from 1977 which I have included here so you can get an idea of how great it is on the body. It is beautifully made to Haute Couture standards and a gorgeous little dress that is easy to wear.
