Product Description:

An exceptionally rare runway piece from John Galliano’s legendary SS2007 “Madame Butterfly” collection for Christian Dior — widely regarded as one of the most theatrical and culturally layered collections of his Dior era.

This pair embodies the collection’s East-meets-West narrative through its sculptural silhouette and delicate textile detailing. The design features a vivid lime green leather base contrasted with soft silk bow straps across the front, evoking traditional Asian garment elements reinterpreted through Galliano’s couture lens.

The woven wedge heel adds both structural height and artisanal texture, creating a striking balance between lightness and architectural form. The ankle strap refines the silhouette, while the bold monochromatic palette enhances its visual impact on the runway.

Far beyond a conventional fashion item, this piece represents a moment in fashion history — where storytelling, craftsmanship, and cultural reference converge into wearable art.

Extremely scarce on the global market, with virtually no comparable examples available. A true collector’s acquisition and museum-level archive piece.
