"I would say the same about dots as checks. They are lovely, elegant and easy", wrote Christian Dior in his 'Little Dictionary of Fashion'. The blue silk twill 'Mirza' dress, from the Spring-Summer 1951 collection, provides a perfect illustration. Sporting the Ovale line's signature curves, this haute couture design naturally enhances those of the female form, elegantly framing the neckline, shaping the waist with finesse and lightly sculpting the hips, for a feminine result that’s resolutely Dior.
