Part 27 Christian Dior 1970s Eye wear. http://www.medavog.com http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christia... "Francisco Medavogs collection started off as a small sampling of some European couture designs to help him study FASHION design. By looking at the French seams and other intricacies, he learned about couture construction through the true masters of design. This hobby quickly became a collection of more than 25,000 fashion items, primarily 20th century European designs, with a number of them extending back to the 1920s and 30s.
"In 1968, Jackie married Greek shipping magnate, Aristotle Onassis. Onassis died in 1975, and from 1978 until her death in 1994, Jackie worked as an editor for Doubleday in New York City."
"At first, I didn't quite understand why so many people were interested in seeing these clothes," says Francisco. "For me, the clothes were simply great examples of what I was able to study while at the Fashion Institute. Now, I feel that my collection is the beginning of a wonderful museum collection."
"I'd love to open the first American Fashion Museum, devoted solely to fashion and couture, similar to Zandra Rhodes' museum in London."

I am an Optician, as well as a lover of fashion. This pair of Dior sun are in fantastic shape. I wonder if they could support new lenses? I love that Burberry and Chanel have been releasing dramatic sunglasses in this theme (the oversize). They are not only gorgeous, but provide greater protection for the eye against sun damage.
...And Dior is another one -- even though I can admire newer fashion designers, when you think "high fashion" which has gone into the public psyche after oh, 40, 50 years and will still be there 50 more years from now, no one comes close to Dior, or YSL, Givenchy, Halston, or Chanel.
