Rare Christian Dior by John Galliano Herbst F/W 1998 Fringe Shawl Coat Runway

Description

An iconic Galliano-era Dior coat from the Fall 1998 ready-to-wear collection. The hallmark is its dramatic, scarf-like shawl collar with a fringed edge. Designed to be styled multiple ways: worn off the shoulders, draped across the neckline, or wrapped high as a funnel scarf. This collar became a Galliano signature across his early haute couture seasons and was spotlighted again in the Dior Fall 1998 campaign on Kate Moss, making pieces with this detail highly collectible. Design notes Soft light blue-grey suiting with beautiful drape. Oversized convertible shawl collar with fringed finish, multiple styling configurations (see on-body photos). Single-breasted front with thread-wrapped buttons (a couture-level detail) Angled/slanted flap pockets. Knee-length silhouette; long sleeves. Size & fit Labeled FR 38; best for US 4–6 depending on desired layering ease. Condition Very good, worn condition. Light discoloration on the inside of the collar and a few subtle surface pulls on the exterior. Both photographed. Clean, structurally sound, and ready to wear. Includes Three spare, matching covered buttons (for easy replacement if ever needed).
