Don't miss the chance to get married in a vintage Dior dress

A vintage Dior dress being sold be Bellmans Fine Art Auctioneers

Bellmans Fine Art Auctioneers is offering a spectacular, one-off vintage Dior dress that was worn by the bride of the society wedding of the year in 1968. This stunning gown has lost none of its glamour or style over the years and will be sold at Bellmans in Sussex on the 25th of March 2025 as part of the Works of Art auction, carrying an estimate of £1,000 - £2,000.

It was tailored with a classic aristocratic wedding in mind. The dress was worn by Juliet Durie when she married The Honourable John Greville Napier, third son of Lord Napier & Ettrick, a descendant of one of Scotland's oldest clans. Juliet, the only daughter of the Director General of the Automobile Association, the AA, had impeccably high standards and the dress was a bespoke design, commissioned by her to ensure the dress was truly a one-off and reflected the style and classic lines that Dior was known for.

The dress was tailor-made by Dior and in today's sizing would fit a size 10. The sale of this dress represents a unique opportunity to own a one-off Dior wedding dress that is effortlessly stylish and timeless yet reminiscent of its late 1960s origin.
