Vintage Christian Dior Trotter/Oblique Silk Scarf 26 by 26 inches great conditi
The edit · Silk Scarves
A used silk scarf. Silk scarves from these decades were designed by artists and finished by hand. A signed, hand-rolled hem still reads as luxury sixty years on.
The New Look that rebuilt fashion.
Founded in Paris in 1946 by Christian Dior. His 1947 New Look collection, with its cinched waist and full skirt, redrew the silhouette after the war, and the house never looked back.
Dior is collected for the Saddle bag, the Lady Dior and its costume jewellery of the 1950s and 1960s, all of which carry the romance of the house's golden age.
What to look for
Hallmarks on jewellery and stitching on bags. The Saddle's curved shape and the Lady Dior's cannage quilting are hard to fake convincingly.
Hand-rolled hems and saturated color are the tells of a good scarf. Gently steam it before judging; vintage silk relaxes beautifully.
How to wear it
Knot it at the neck, tie it onto a bag handle, or frame it. A scarf this good spends as much time on display as it does on your shoulders.
