Fashion 1960s. Cut-price Dior - with balloons. Christian Dior would have turned in his

Fashion 1960s. Cut-price Dior - with balloons. Christian Dior would have turned in his grave had he known of the goings on Tuesday (5-3-68) at the London branch of his famous Paris fashion house. Not only were they launching a range of clothes labelled Diorling - the Dior norm, but showing them off were girls who smiled in a most immodel way. Jolly girls in fact, hanging on to balloons, grinning and sort of jigglaing around: a rather distant cry from the straightfaced models at the staid Dior shows in Paris. Prices for the new Diorling range - 20 guineas will buy a dress, three guineas a scarf or beret - are certainly an attempt to bring a touch of French couture within the reach of the British girls budget. Like the balloons, colours were red, white and navy blue and French sailor pompon hats underlined that here was French fashion, available in England. There were navy and white sailor suits, ruffled white organdie dresses, pinstripe grey flannel trouser suits and " little nothing" jersey dresses. For the price, the fabric and finish are excellent - and the buyer gets the added value of that hidden Dior lable. All in all the new Diorling range, together with the revamped Dior-London collection, are as pretty as the Paris original collection and a lot younger looking. Jolly....in a pompon hat.
