Description
Pieces like this Christian Dior Saddle are why the line is considered a baseline: the asymmetric, stirrup-clasp silhouette John Galliano drew up for Dior in 1999. The piece is finished in python (a centrepiece exotic skin permitted under CITES with the appropriate paperwork), which is precisely the material the line is meant to be read in. Its 6 by 8 by 2 inch footprint gives it a contained presence without forcing the issue. Talk to anyone who covers the front rows and the same names come up - this is one of them, and not by accident. Pieces from this lineage are the ones a collection is measured against, not the ones that fill it. Catalogued by Maison de Beaubigonne for the buyer who has already chosen.
