Christian Dior by John Galliano — Spring/Summer 2005 Silk Chiffon Dress
 
A stunning example of John Galliano’s romantic vision for Christian Dior, this silk chiffon dress from the Spring/Summer 2005 collection captures the soft, feminine elegance that defined the season.
 
Made from delicate ivory silk chiffon printed with a floral vine motif in shades of pink and green, the same print that appeared on several looks from the Spring 2005 Dior runway, this dress embodies Galliano’s perfect blend of delicate femininity and refined elegance.
 
Cut on the bias, the dress drapes fluidly over the body, creating a graceful, form-skimming silhouette. Cascading ruffled layers adorn the neckline and tiered skirt, adding texture and movement, while the asymmetric hemline enhances its light, ethereal feel.
