As Seen on Giovanna Battaglia!

Incredible Christian Dior gown in a beautiful silk chiffon that has been done in a red and white striping. To me this is the perfect summer gown - it has a light and airy feel to it, the front plunge feels sexy but not overtly so and the color is just perfect. The skirt has miles and miles of fabric in it and the top layer is set over two inner layers of white silk chiffon that adds to that beautiful feel of fullness and lightness. The top is edged in a wide ruffle of fabric whose stripes are smaller and set closer together then those on the skirt and bodice. It plunges quite deep at the front and the back scoops softly. This gown is so well made that if you wished to wear the plunge at the back you could get away with it! You can also wear the shoulders lower. An amazing documented find from the 1979 collection. Excellent, appears unworn condition.

The last photo shows two versions from the same 1979 collection. The caption on this photograph reads  "Boutique collection, 1979 ‘In the Wind’, two organza evening dresses with green, white and red stripes in the ‘Boutique’ Collection for the spring and summer, from Christian Dior London, photo from the Getty Archive"

Fully lined in a white silk crepe through the bodice and two layers of silk chiffon through the skirt. Closes with a side painted metal zipper. The waist band has a stiffening fabric inside it. Hand finishes.

Bust:17 " flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 13.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Bodice: 15" from top of bodice to top waist seam
Skirt: 42" from waist to hem

Modern Sizing Equivalent: SML-MED

Sticky and white
Style: SPF 50
The sunscreen has a very sticky and thick texture. It will keep you from getting sunburnt, but it will also leave you with a white color.

Good sunscreen
Style: SPF 50
Super good coverage and it lasts a long time in the sun and even through water activities. The only negative is the white cast. Not as bad as others but just be aware it doesn’t fully rub in.

Great sunscreen & works for kids - even used in resorts!
Style: SPF 50
Terrific! I don’t feel it is as good as chemical ones but my favorite non-chemical one. Used on a long vacation and it did the job! Also didn’t cause pimples like other thick versions of this.

Protection
Style: SPF 50
I love this product, especially my husband because it’s all-natural. It contains minerals that leave a slight white residue on the face. While it would be nice to have a clearer texture, it does a beautiful job of protecting you from the sun.

Great product
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Product works great and has a great scent to it. It even works well against the hot Mexican sunshine. Definitely recommend this product. And we're able to carry it in our carry-on suitcases when traveling.
