The Silhouette & Fabric: Christian Dior London used high-end British textiles (like silk). 1950s gowns feature incredibly heavy internal boning, corsetry, and voluminous “New Look” petticoats style, whereas 1960s bridal gowns shift toward structured A-line, empire waist, or trapeze silhouettes

A very rare 1960s-1970, stunning CHRISTIAN DIOR Couture “Demi Couture” no. 41774, made in England. A long strapless with internal corsetry bridal gown/dress with its small jacket (bolero style). Handcrafted in Paris from Calais lace in cream colour embroidered with flowers with pearls and crystals. This stunning sculptural fitted long flares lace dress is well structured at the waist with a satin-silk ribbon belt decorated with the same embroidery at the bottom all around the edges of the dress. It is a stunning structured A-line dress with an empire waist for an amazing silhouette. This dress is lined with tulle in the same colour for a wonderful silhouette and shape. A “Must-Have” Christian Dior couture dress made in England for your special wedding day or parties for an amazing vintage luxury look! Find attached the black and white photos from Christian Dior runway show in Germany in 1954.
