Christian Dior Embroidered Suede Ankle-Tie Heels by John Galliano
This is the Galliano era at full volume. A T-strap heel in tan suede covered in silver and gold thread embroidery, swirls and chevrons worked across the vamp and up the heel. The footbed is a shot of bright Dior orange. The ankle ties are red satin finished with gold D and C letter charms that spell the house name. It comes complete with its original box and dust bag, which is how you want to find a piece like this. Galliano's Dior shoes from these years have become serious collector territory, and the fully embroidered styles are the ones people hunt for.
