Shopping for Fur Coats in Paris in the 1960s

August 21st, 2024 by violette


As I was researching the Christian Dior 1969-70 Fall/Winter Fur Collection I came across this photograph of according to the caption. “Sylvie Vartan trying on a fur coat in Paris” taken 1964. This does not look like a coat for a woman – it actually looks like a coat for a leopard himself – hmmm……….

The attitude toward furs was certainly different in that time to what it is now.
