That is definitely of value. Make sure to get it cleaned and steamed before giving it to her since thrift shops and wool don't like each other much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-vintage-christian-dior-coat#post-529687 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 03:15:35 +0000 Transcona Shannon 529687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would think it might have some value - I would love to see some pictures! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-vintage-christian-dior-coat#post-529682 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 03:07:41 +0000 Anonymous 529682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Friggin fantastic!

What a great find!! It seems like you have the best thrift shop where you live .... always amazing finds! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-vintage-christian-dior-coat#post-529638 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 02:11:35 +0000 Meredith1953 529638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pics please!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-vintage-christian-dior-coat#post-529625 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 02:00:00 +0000 catgirl 529625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thrifted an incredible vintage Christian Dior coat for $20 yesterday. It's in pristine condition (pockets still sewn shut), rusty orange, heavy wool with leather (oops, they are not leather )buttons, lined, a very retro classic style that to my eye does not look dated at all. It has the original label and a second tag from Harrods intact and looks to be from the 60s. It's too small for me; I actually got it as a 50th birthday gift for my dear friend. </p> <p>Is this something that's likely to have any real value? I'm only asking because she lives a fairly rough and ready rural lifestyle, and I'd like to inform her if it's something she should not just throw in her entry where her dogs will be drooling on it. </p> <p>ETA: Anna, she teaches high school so she will get use out of it for that purpose.</p> <p>I'll post a picture when I get home if anyone's interested. </p> <p>ETA: My thrift stores (Value Village) usually are terrible! I think they are importing from outside the state. </p>
