This absolutely breathtaking Christian Dior by Yves Saint Laurent blush pink silk strapless corset gown dates to his spring/summer 1958, a pivotal moment in fashion history. Following Monsieur Dior’s sudden passing in late 1957, the house appointed the then 21-year-old Saint Laurent as creative director, making him one of the youngest couturiers ever to lead a Parisian maison. We were thrilled to uncover the original documentation of this gown, one of Dior's key models Odile Kern in the same dress. Further research revealed a closely related design from March 1958 described as “an evening dress in pink orchid silk,” modeled in London. Additionally, we found a photo of a dress sharing identical constructional elements from the Dior's haute couture winter collection presented at Blenheim Palace in November 1958, where it was shown to Princess Margaret. This is a clear testament to the international reach and prestige of Saint Laurent’s earliest couture work.

This archival gown is a masterclass in refined construction and intricate detail. Fashioned in luxurious pale blush-pink silk, the strapless bodice is meticulously shaped with internal boned corsetry, creating a sculpted secure fit that defines the waist before flowing into a full, pleated skirt. At the bust, an asymmetric silk bow unfurls with intention, its cascading fringe panels adding movement and textural contrast. This special dress retains its numbered Dior demi-couture label alongside a rare Dior Ltd. London designation—where select couture models were tailored to suit UK preferences while maintaining the uncompromising standards of Parisian craftsmanship. Most remarkably, the original paper tag remains attached within the interior skirting, an exceptional survival detail seldom encountered in garments of this caliber. To own a Christian Dior gown from this transitional moment is a privilege; to acquire one documented with such depth is a true 'Holy Grail'.  A profound piece of wearable art, it would be equally suited to a curated archive, institutional exhibition, or a red carpet event where historic beauty is desired.

My daughter’s tender tummy appreciates these
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I’m not sure what else she likes about these, but she’s always had tummy troubles and is gluten-free with extra allergies etc. I think they helped with something other than her tummy (sorry I can’t be more specific, I hate when people do that but I don’t know what it was. I’ll try to ask her.). She asked me for more of these and I was happy to get them for her!
