Gorgeous 1970s Christian Dior by Frederic Castet Rich Brown-Black Fur Coat w Tie Belt z-archive-oscardelarenta The versatility of this setI have held this in my archives for several years now and I think that it is a stunning example of the fur pieces being produced at this point in Dior's history. This time period was known as the 'Golden Age' for the Dior fur division. Frederic Castet was appointed the head of the division after joining Dior in 1953. He single handedly restructured the fourrure department to follow the haute couture and the prt porter philosophy of the house in 1968.
