1960s Coastal Chic by Christian Dior

Christian Dior Vintage Seashell Scarf – A Rare Coastal Treasure

When we think of Christian Dior, we think of elegance, romance, and timeless design. But there’s a lesser-known side to the fashion house that’s as playful as it is poetic—its love affair with the sea.

In the 1960s and '70s, Dior released a series of accessories inspired by the coastal beauty of the French Riviera. One standout piece is the vintage seashell scarf, a cotton square scarf printed with dreamy white starfish, scallops, conch shells, and even a seahorse—framed by classic Dior border lines and signed in the corner.

This yellow variant, rare and vibrant, evokes sunlit boardwalks and vintage holidays in Saint-Tropez. It's a scarf that tells a story: of retro seaside glamour, of refined summers, and of Dior’s exquisite attention to nature’s forms.

Today, this scarf isn’t just a fashion accessory—it’s a collectible. Its bright colorway and nostalgic motif appeal to vintage collectors and fashion lovers alike. Whether worn knotted around the neck or framed as art, this scarf embodies the freedom and elegance of vintage resort wear.
