Note du spécialiste

Christian Dior licensed his patterns to Berdorf Goodman in the United States, who then sourced fabrics and manufactured the garments locally, creating made to order couture pieces for the American market.

Dior's Chambord was shown as part of his fall/winter 1954-55 collection and was constructed of silk and silk tulle.
