About The Piece

A bias-cut newspaper-print cocktail dress designed by John Galliano for Christian Dior’s 2000 fall collection, look 34, the design was seen on model Angie Schmidt on the runway. 

This iconic black-and-white newsprint features made-up headlines and images of then-creative director John Galliano. The dress is composed of a matte viscose, jersey-like fabric with spaghetti straps and gold-tone CD hardware attaching the straps to the draped neckline of the bodice.

This seasonal print for Dior was a commercial success with Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw wearing the same style “Dior Gazette” printed bias-cut cocktail dress in Sex and the City (Season 3, Episode 17) when she has lunch with Big’s wife Natasha, who confronts Carrie about her affair with her husband. Since the design’s appearance on the show, it has entered the pop zeitgeist as a coveted fashion must-have.
