Bring a piece of Haute Couture history into your home with this A5 postcard of the Medrano short evening dress, designed by Yves Saint Laurent for the House of Dior. The deep purple and fuchsia shot-silk taffeta dress formed part of the Haute Couture Autumn-Winter 1960 Souplesse, Légèreté, Vie collection and is today on display at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Yves Saint Laurent, who was to become one of the giants of 20th century fashion design, was only 21 years old when he took over as head designer of the House of Dior, after Christian Dior passed away in 1957. As such, the postcard carrying the image of this piece of fashion history well deserves a place in your home, bringing to life the spirit of early 1960s Parisian Haute Couture. Medrano, short evening dress in deep purple and fuchsia shot-silk taffeta. Haute Couture Autumn-Winter 1960. Souplesse. Légèreté, Vie collection. Christian Dior by Yves Saint Laurent.
