Woman Modeling a Christian Dior Jacketed Dress

(Original Caption) Dior's Grade "A." Paris, France: Christian Dior's pacesetting "A" line, successor to the "H" line he launched last season, narrows the shoulders, ignores the bosom, bypasses the waist, and broadens into the shape of the letter "A" via a pleated shirt. In this jacketed dress, done in a lightweight plaid wool, the designer also shows off his short, narrow sleeve line and the "high-waisted" look that begins, incongruously, below the natural waistline.
