"Christian Dior" John Galliano period elbow patch knit

We would like to introduce you to some special pieces from Christian Dior, which was founded by Christian Dior in 1946 and has continued to thrive to this day, starting with haute couture.

This masterpiece, made from a delicately woven knit fabric with a somewhat literary feel, shines with the beauty that is characteristic of John Galliano, who skillfully balances structure and white space.

The soft flow of the threads and the softness that clings to your skin the moment you put it on make this a masterpiece backed by the aesthetics of materials and structure that cannot be simply described as "simple."

The dress as a whole features slightly longer sleeves and a straight, boxy silhouette. The body is intentionally left with extra space to lend an elegant nuance to movement, while the sculptural rise of each detail gives a sense of Galliano's unique design philosophy.

The entire piece is adorned with jacquard knitting that makes the “Dior” logo stand out in three dimensions, and the look exudes a quiet tension and the depth inherent in the weave.

The elbow patches on both sleeves in the same color are the most poetic accent of this knitwear, and are the key to achieving structural balance, not only in terms of functionality but also as a design to control the visual center of gravity. The matte textured patches provide a gentle contrast to the knitwear, so the eye naturally flows to the sleeves, functioning beautifully as a quiet decoration.

The ribbing at the collar is fine and not too tight, so it fits well when layered with a shirt or turtleneck, and also naturally accentuates the décolleté when worn alone, making it suitable for both men and women to wear comfortably.

This is a highly recommended item for those who are not satisfied with boring minimalism and are looking for decoration that speaks volumes within subtle structural beauty, for those who want to project the coexistence of tension and lyricism present in Dior during the Galliano era into fashion, and for anyone who wishes to quietly embrace their own worldview.

In terms of styling, pairing it with wool slacks or a leather skirt will create an impression that makes the most of the depth of the texture, and layering it with a cotton shirt and masculine jacket will create a visual effect that tightens up the softness unique to knit.

Please take this opportunity.
