As Seen on Giovanna Battaglia!

Incredible Christian Dior gown in a beautiful silk chiffon that has been done in a red and white striping. To me this is the perfect summer gown - it has a light and airy feel to it, the front plunge feels sexy but not overtly so and the color is just perfect. The skirt has miles and miles of fabric in it and the top layer is set over two inner layers of white silk chiffon that adds to that beautiful feel of fullness and lightness. The top is edged in a wide ruffle of fabric whose stripes are smaller and set closer together then those on the skirt and bodice. It plunges quite deep at the front and the back scoops softly. This gown is so well made that if you wished to wear the plunge at the back you could get away with it! You can also wear the shoulders lower. An amazing documented find from the 1979 collection. Excellent, appears unworn condition.

The last photo shows two versions from the same 1979 collection. The caption on this photograph reads  "Boutique collection, 1979 ‘In the Wind’, two organza evening dresses with green, white and red stripes in the ‘Boutique’ Collection for the spring and summer, from Christian Dior London, photo from the Getty Archive"

Fully lined in a white silk crepe through the bodice and two layers of silk chiffon through the skirt. Closes with a side painted metal zipper. The waist band has a stiffening fabric inside it. Hand finishes.

Bust:17 " flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 13.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Bodice: 15" from top of bodice to top waist seam
Skirt: 42" from waist to hem

Modern Sizing Equivalent: SML-MED

Great Coat, have steamer ready
Color: Black, Size: Small, Color: Black, Size: Small
Great jacket for the money!!4 stars because the jacket came very wrinkly and was difficult to get the wrinkles out. Fit well, my son felt that the sleeves were a bit too long but I think they looked great. The material was nice & durable, as long as he does not out grow it will be able to be used again

Ok jacket that’s good for the money.
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
This obviously isn’t a tailored suit but, it looks good, fits ok, and serves its purpose. It’s cheap enough to overlook any shortcomings but, for the price? Yeah, it’s worth it. How long will it last? Time will tell but I’ll only wear it occasionally so it should last a while.

For the price, it’s nice
Color: Black, Size: Medium
For the price, this is a really nice jacket. But, for double the price, I bought one at the department store, and it’s way nicer. Would I buy this again? Probably not. Bought a medium, fits like a 38R. I’m 5’9” 175 lbs. slightly snug, but I’m losing weight.

Great suit jacket
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large, Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large
We bought this for my son’s school dance and his confirmation. They matched his suit pants that we purchased from a department store and the jacket fit perfectly, running true to size.

Decent
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Smells strange, assuming its the dye. Good fit, although the arms are quite long. Also had some strange stitch going across the left breast area that seemed like a mistake and was an eye sore. Good value overall for a quick put together suit.
