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

Great resource. Worth purchasing.
Format: Hardcover
Great resource, worth every penny. I wish it would have included a chapter or two on numerical modeling, especially an overview of the various CFD codes out there, but it is OK that it did not.

The book contents are good. Format? Not so great/
Format: Hardcover
The text of this volume is exhaustive, but the photos are substandard. These need some enhancement and a lot of enlargement. Due to its its extreme weight, the book should have been issued in at least two volume, possibly three,. The third volume could profitably be devoted to enhanced photos: those used seem to adhere to the principal that a photo is worth <100 words.
