I am in love with a dress I will never find...

I know that it is christian dior and from the 1950's (I think 1954) but cannot find anything more about it

where and how do you think I could locate such a creature?

Hi I have emailed a contact of mine who knows these things, sent her pics - will let you know what comes of it! xx

thank you no fries!

i think it's very rare but you never know

Are you wanting it in the same colour as the one shown in the picture?

Bamba x

ebay, vintage shops or you can always have it tailor made?!

same colour, same design, same fabric same same same

this may be taking it too far...BUT could you get a graphic designer/fabric designer to mimic the pattern and colours and then get your fabric made...looks like chiffon or silk (but i'm no expert)...and then get someone with a siper magnifier to see the exact shape and cut of the dress....

you could search for 1954 dior patterns....? long shot i know...

i feel for you... x

lol i think i may just have to accept the fact i shall never find it

I'm figuring this is where you may have found the pics in the first place, but if not, I found this, has an e-mail addy that may be of help...
