'-SPECIAL- "Christian Dior" 90's-00's Abstract Expression Pattern Large Stole
From Christian Dior, which has upheld the concept of "elegance" since its founding and continues to inherit that tradition in various forms, we introduce a special masterpiece.
This exquisite piece features a pattern with beautiful depth reminiscent of an abstract painting, capturing attention with its artistic use.
First and foremost, the luxurious blend of 60% silk and 40% wool, combined with the supple weaving unique to Italy, results in a subtle sheen visible only when catching light, and a drape that rises as if swelling around the neck.
Even though it is lightweight, it does not look unreliable because of the "core" created by wool, which prevents the surface from flattening when wrapped, leaving a natural shadow.
The pattern is not about flaunting a logo but features an abstract expression that looks like melted bronze or brown, with overlapping motifs that blur the outlines, quietly evoking the decadent beauty and grunge atmosphere typical of late 1990s to early 2000s fashion.
Additionally, the edges are finished with fringes, creating movement every time you move, and the nuance of time added to the "painterly" pattern is also attractive.
Regarding the era, the fact that the retailer listed on the paper tag is Kawabe Co., Ltd., and the phone number "03-3352-1231" with a four-digit area code, narrows it down to after 1991, and the old JIS washing label confirms it is before 2016.
Furthermore, considering the tag design common in accessories lines from that time, with white background and black serif text "Christian Dior PARIS," and matching this abstract pattern's mood, the most consistent estimate is late 1990s to early 2000s.
As for styling, simply adding it to a neat wool coat or a minimal setup increases the amount of information in your outfit without overdoing it, adding only "depth," and it is also recommended to casually wrap it over shirts or turtleneck tops, contrasting textures for a refined yet relaxed look.
Alternatively, by creating a temperature contrast with a leather outerwear, the shadows of this stole are even more accentuated.
Definitely take this opportunity.
