This exceptional, archival Christian Dior by Yves Saint Laurent emerald green silk satin cocktail dress dates back to his 1958 spring/summer collection. That year marked a pivotal moment in fashion history, as a 21-year-old Yves Saint Laurent was appointed Creative Director of the House of Dior following Christian Dior’s sudden passing. In an extraordinary debut, Saint Laurent preserved the elegance and discipline of the maison while introducing a softer, more youthful modernity which launched Dior into a new era.

This magnificent museum-worthy dress exemplifies that delicate balance. The silhouette is flattering and refined, nipping in at the waist before falling into a clean pencil skirt that elongates the line. The bodice features a sculpted construction that creates subtle movement across the bust, supported by a fully boned interior corset that shapes and holds the form beautifully. The waist is precisely nipped, drawing the eye to the most dramatic detail: a large-scale fringed bow that anchors the look. The bow attaches to the dress with three discreet snaps and secures with hooks and eyes, allowing it to sit with sculptural confidence while remaining functional. We discovered a closely related dress from the same year, featuring the exact same bow detail affirming the design’s presence within Dior’s international collections of the period. Finished with a "Christian Dior – New York" label, this piece reflects the house’s mid-century expansion into the American market, where select designs were produced for international clients while maintaining Parisian standards of craftsmanship.

Elegant yet assertive, this is the kind of dress you slip into and immediately understand its power. The color is also the prettiest shade of emerald green which works perfectly year round. Whether worn for an intimate evening or a red carpet event, you feel the precision and confidence woven into every seam. Christian Dior by Yves Saint Laurent dresses from this formative moment are increasingly difficult to find—making this a rare opportunity to own a true cornerstone of fashion history.

Measurements
Bust: 33-34 inches
Waist: 26-27 inches
Hips: best up to 38 inches
Total Length: 48 inches

This Christian Dior by Yves Saint Laurent designer dress is in beautiful condition with no rips or holes. The dress closes with two hidden back zippers, complex sash belt snaps and a boned corset style bodice. The level of work in this piece would only be found in couture today. Only sign of age is some very faint wear by the underarms. Please message for detailed pictures. Highly wearable and an investment that will continue to increase in value.

Great size
Size: 21 Inch by 37 Inch
What a great pillow, finally one that fits inside my oversized king bed shams perfectly, filled it out fully, fluffy but full, has good support, not a soft or a hard pillow just really full all the way to the corners, made very well good quality, but this would actually be a good bed pillow but for me its for my shams & I couldn't be more pleased, highly recommend.

Revised review
Size: 20 Inch by 26 Inch
I have ordered many of these pillows and loved them! Nice and squishy but didn’t flatten like down pillows. I needed a bunch for Airbnb but they are very pricey. Was reading the reviews and several said that the pillows had changed. I thought, how much could they have changed? So I went ahead with purchase. I felt like I may as well have gone to Walmart and bought a cheap foam pillow. Update: finally tried the pillow myself. Although there is a definite difference, it is very soft and fluffy. Changed my rating from 2 to 4 stars.
