Monday Vintage Find: Parisian imagery

Jan 24, 2011


Could this image be more fantastically fabulous??!? And that grey Christian Dior dress ... loove. Can't wait to be back in Paris next month! Wouldn't this be a great pose to re-interpret on a couple's love shoot?
ps. You can buy a print here.

  7. What a wonderful find! Trust Dior to make a tailored dress still so incredibly feminine! Hhhmmm...beginning to visualize bridemaids' dresses in a similar style.

  8. Just love the photo, the dress and can I tag along to paris with you? Never been, maybe it's time considering how completely obsessed I am with French Knots. I'd put them everywhere. Park benches, road signs, bottle tops, circus tents, but I have only so much time on this earth so I stick to silk and linen.

  9. O.m.g. I was in this exact same spot last weekend! How crazy is that. I swear I didn't seek it out on purpose. Of course the Louvre magically attracted me :-)
