This rare pieces was made under the maison directorship of Marc Bohan, he was the director who managed the house for the longest time (1960-1989), who among all had the merit of conceiving the structure of the brand as we know it now, of founding its male line and inventing its most famous pattern, the Dior Oblique.

Marc Bohan, was a Christian Dior's protégés and he was appointed director of Dior between the 1960 to the 1989. His aesthetic line was much more conservative but his nose for incredible business: universally considered the saviour of the brand, he launched the first ready-to-wear line in '67 entrusting it to Philippe Guibourgé, created the Dior Oblique pattern for the SS69 collection and, in the 1970s, launched Dior Monsieur, who would later become Dior Homme. Meanwhile, the perfume business grew and, in 1968, the first connection was created with Moët-Hennessy who bought Dior Parfums and in the future became LVMH after the acquisition by Bernard Arnault in the 1980s. Bohan's style could be summed up in his motto: «Make sophisticated clothes simply, with a touch of insolence every now and then».
