Christian Dior couture, Fall 1959 |
The other day, I was sharing fashion plates from 1914 on my Facebook page. This morning, I found this image of a Christian Dior evening gown from 1959. I do believe St. Laurent, who was the designer at Dior in 1959, may have been influenced by the hobble skirts of an earlier age.
