"Christian Dior" 80's-90's Beaded silk wool knit sweater

"Christian Dior"
80s-90s Beaded silk-wool knit pullover

Since its founding, Christian Dior has been expressing the image of women of each era through elegance. We are pleased to introduce a distinctive piece with beautiful bead embellishment.

By layering beads in the same color tones over a black knit, this piece offers a restrained yet unmistakably radiant charm. It is a refined decorative quality that is characteristic of Christian Dior prêt-à-porter.

The fabric is made with a blend of 55% silk and 45% wool as indicated on the tag. Thanks to a textile that harmonizes the warmth of wool with the moist, smooth feel unique to silk, it blends naturally with autumn and winter styling without appearing heavy. You can enjoy its deep, dimensional look—similar to a deep charcoal black—from the black base.

On the front, black-toned beads and tube beads are arranged in a geometric pattern to create a V-shaped line. When it catches the light, it produces a dull, metal-like reflection akin to gunmetal. As a result, the material contrast stands out within an all-black design, lending an elegant presence around the face and down to the chest without relying on jewelry.

The silhouette is size M as stated. It has a soft drape typical of knits, with shoulder seams that do not strongly stand out. While providing a comfortable amount of ease in the bust area, it is designed to settle naturally at the hem and cuffs with ribbing. Even when worn with blousing, it is easy to maintain a balanced look. In addition, the keyhole opening on the back adds a subtle sense of lightness to the back view.

Regarding the period, it appears to be a domestic product from around the 1980s to the 1990s. This is because the neck tag confirms the notation “Christian Dior PRÊT-A-PORTER,” and there is no sign of a Japanese legal display tag, no old JIS-style care symbols, and no QR code or long multilingual care labels commonly found on current items. We believe you will feel the value of this piece as vintage, in its tag specifications and decorative styling that differ from modern products.

Since the color scheme is unified in black while still offering a touch of brilliance, it can be incorporated not only into formal settings but also into everyday style. It is especially recommended for those who want to express their individuality with a sense of quality from the materials and quiet embellishment, and for those who wish to enjoy prêt-à-porter naturally while feeling the brand’s history.

For styling, you can pair it with wool slacks and a long skirt for a polished look. Of course, combining it with wide denim and leather shoes will allow you to translate the refined Dior vibe of the vintage era into the atmosphere of modern mode.

We invite you to take advantage of this opportunity.
