Christian Dior Navy Silk Satin 1960's Wrap Dress
A classic 1960's Christian Dior wrap dress in navy silk satin. Quite truthfully I've had this on the form several times and can't decide which side is the front. The darts lead me to believe that the way it is shown is correct, but it doesn't seem right because of the way the wrap closes... so, you can wear it either way I suppose! Button trim at the neckline (?) and shoulders. "Christian Dior New York," label in the side bodice seam.
