This exquisite navy jacquard skirt suit hails from John Galliano’s legendary Fall 1997 debut ready-to-wear collection for Dior—titled “Dior Pin Ups.” While the lilac version with mink trim famously graced the runway, this rare navy version captures the same sculptural silhouette and feminine flair in a darker, moodier palette. The fitted jacket features strong shoulders, a nipped waist, and original art deco-style buttons. The sleeves are cut at a seven-eighths length—meant to elegantly reveal the wrists. Paired with a mini A-line skirt, this piece is a striking example of Galliano’s theatrical yet impeccably tailored vision for Dior.
Provenance:
This suit appeared on the runway in lilac and was also produced in this navy jacquard version. Part of the “Dior Pin Ups” Fall 1997 RTW collection—John Galliano’s debut for the house.
