Christian Dior Archive Pebble Print Hourglass Blazer
A quintessential distillation of archival luxury tailoring, this structured blazer from the Christian Dior Prêt-à-Porter Modèle Exportation line exemplifies the high-octane femininity of late-century Parisian design. Rendered in a striking magenta pink and cream abstract pebble print, the garment is meticulously woven with a fine, ribbed horizontal corded texture that gives the pattern exceptional material dimension. The silhouette is defined by a sculptural, crossover sweetheart neckline that leads into a dramatic hourglass-cinched waist and an architectural curved hemline. Punctuated by three self-covered dome buttons and structured shoulder padding, this piece strips away conventional casual wear in favor of a sharp, graphic tailoring statement.
