By John Galliano for Christian Dior
Located in San Jose, CA
A rare pair of Christian Dior western pumps designed by John Galliano, dating to the Fall 2001 era. Executed in black and ivory genuine python with contrasting black leather appliqué detailing, this silhouette reflects one of the defining motifs seen throughout Galliano's celebrated Fall 2001 collection.
The collection's western theme appeared across ready-to-wear, accessories, and footwear, with the runway boots becoming particularly iconic. This pump variation is encountered far less frequently and offers a more wearable interpretation of the same design language while retaining the collection's distinctive character.
The sharply elongated pointed toe, slim stiletto heel, and graphic python pattern create a silhouette that feels remarkably current more than two decades later. The combination of exotic skin, precision leatherwork, and Galliano-era design makes this an exceptional acquisition for collectors of early Dior, fashion archivists, and clients seeking rare runway-era accessories.
Constructed in Italy entirely from leather and genuine python.
Includes original Christian Dior dust bag.
