Description from the seller

*Thank you very much for viewing our auction.
In addition to offering high-quality items, we also provide full support after shipping, including tracking updates, so please feel comfortable participating in our auctions.

Produced during the 1990s, this Christian Dior knit dress reflects the house’s commitment to precision, balance, and discreet refinement. The black colourway reinforces the clarity of the design, allowing the form and construction to remain the primary focus. The silhouette is elongated and controlled, shaped to follow the body with restraint rather than emphasis, and anchored by a modest high neckline.

The wool and nylon composition provides a stable yet supple knit, resulting in a surface that reads as smooth and matte. This material choice supports the garment’s structured appearance while maintaining flexibility suitable for extended wear. The proportions are deliberate, with long sleeves and a measured hemline that together create a cohesive, composed profile characteristic of Dior’s approach during the decade.

Decorative embroidery at the sleeves introduces a considered contrast to the otherwise minimal body of the dress.
