Description
History of the Model: The bomber finds its origins in American aviation jackets from the 1940s, before being reinterpreted by urban fashion and luxury houses. Dior appropriated this classic in the 2000s to reintroduce it in a more minimalist register, mixing utilitarian aesthetics with the sophistication of tailoring. This contemporary version highlights the technical heritage of the model while adapting to a modern and urban silhouette.
Exterior Details: The jacket has an exterior in smooth black fabric, with two piped pockets on the front and a central closure with engraved metal snap buttons. The ribbed knit stand-up collar, decorated with contrasting white stripes, reinforces the varsity inspiration. The “Christian Dior” logo is discreetly embossed on a leather label placed at the base of the left sleeve, providing a subtle touch of recognition. The slightly boxy cut allows for easy layering while maintaining a balanced look.
Interior Details: The interior houses a black quilted vest with diamond patterns, removable using a button system. This vest features tone-on-tone embroidery of the Dior bee accompanied by the initials “CD”, the house’s emblematic emblem. The whole thing is fully lined to provide thermal comfort without weighing down the structure of the jacket. The interior label confirms its manufacture in Italy with a mixed composition of wool, viscose, elastane and polyester.
Product Condition: The bomber jacket is in excellent condition, the finishes are intact, the outer fabric has no tears or discoloration, and the knit is clean, without pilling. The inner vest is perfectly preserved and the snap buttons work without a hitch. The whole demonstrates meticulous maintenance and very little wear.
Care Tips: To preserve the shape and integrity of the fabric, choose professional dry cleaning. Remove the removable inner vest before cleaning. Store the jacket on a wide hanger, in a dry environment, away from direct light to avoid fading of the black.
Why Choose this Product: This revisited Dior bomber offers a perfect balance between military heritage and contemporary sophistication. Its removable vest makes it a versatile piece suitable for different temperatures, while its discreet finishes reflect the understated elegance of the Dior house. For lovers of vintage designer clothing, it represents a rare piece, both functional and emblematic, ideal for a refined urban wardrobe.
