Sohaila 038



Christian Dior gradually refined the design and materials. Here is a fine example from the early 1980's, some five years after they launched their first glasses in 1976. Again there was the problem of heavy glare in the lenses. which called for heavy editing. The lenses are minus nine, three times the model's own prescription. The posing by Sohaila is wonderful and the glasses suit her fine. This masterpiece by Dior was bought for coppers and brass at the "Waterlooplein" flea market in Amsterdam during the late 1980's.
