Miss Dior Day Dresses

This tunic mini-dress, resplendent in pale blue gingham wool, was designed by Guiborgé for Miss Dior in the 1970s. Aimed at a younger audience than the Christian Dior Boutique collections, it has a playful, ingénue feel. The chunky straps form a dungaree-style top and fasten at the front with snap closures under white plastic tops. The front of the dress features a large pocket split into two that fastens with two white-topped snap closures. Accessed under the left arm with a white zip. It is fully lined in white satin. The original label reads “Miss Dior” in stylised font. The Miss Dior clothing line was launched in 1967 as a lower priced, ready-to-wear line made to appeal to a more youthful customer.
