Product Description:
An exceptionally rare runway-era piece from Christian Dior by John Galliano Spring Summer 2002 — these pointed leather boots capture Galliano’s early-2000s vision of romantic rebellion, where sharp tailoring, subcultural references, and couture sensuality collided.
Constructed in rich dark chocolate leather with contrasting textured panels that evoke exotic skin finishes, the silhouette is defined by its elongated pointed toe and sleek sculpted 9 cm heel. The proportions create an elegant yet aggressive line — dramatic without losing refinement.
Throughout the boot, Galliano introduced industrial eyelet detailing and layered harness-style strap construction, finished with silver-tone buckle hardware and the original Dior charm detail at the ankle. These elements transform a classic heeled boot into something unmistakably Dior: equal parts equestrian, punk, and high fashion archive.
The shaft is carefully panelled to contour the leg while maintaining structure and movement, producing a silhouette that feels both architectural and wearable. The subtle contrast between polished leather and textured inserts gives the piece depth and a tactile richness rarely found in contemporary footwear.
Pieces from Dior’s early Galliano runway years have become increasingly difficult to source, particularly footwear in preserved condition, as many were produced in limited quantities and seldom appear on the secondary market today.
A true collector’s archive shoe — ideal for Galliano collectors, editorial styling, or anyone drawn to the darker, sharper side of early-2000s Dior.
