{"product_id":"1980s-christian-dior-aerobic-footless-tights","title":"1980s Christian Dior Aerobic footless tights","description":"\u003cp\u003eChristian Dior footless tights from the 1980s, in mixed colours, from the house's licensed hosiery. Cut to end at the ankle, they belong to the aerobics and dance-studio dressing that crossed into everyday fashion during the decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHosiery was one of the first categories Christian Dior licensed, with the first licence for stockings in the United States in 1949. By the 1980s, under Marc Bohan's artistic direction (1961–1989), the Dior name appeared on hosiery in a wide range of colours and finishes. The same decade saw exercise become a fashion subject: Jane Fonda's first workout video was released on 24 April 1982, and leotards, leg warmers and footless tights moved from the studio into street and evening dressing. Footless tights carrying a couture name show how quickly that fitness look was absorbed by the established fashion houses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tights are footless, ending at the ankle, and are in mixed colours. One size, with measurements given on the packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDior footless tights are an unusual crossover between couture licensing and 1980s fitness culture, and they rarely survive, since hosiery was made to be worn and replaced. They interest collectors of Dior licensed goods and of 1980s activewear, and are of practical use to stylists and costume departments recreating the period.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Archivary ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58082047983996,"sku":"TA-DIO-0114","price":14000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/9433\/2408\/files\/IMG_0967_d64039f2-d029-4755-91bc-7311614d3c62.jpg?v=1793293359","url":"https:\/\/www.thearchivary.com\/en-in\/products\/1980s-christian-dior-aerobic-footless-tights","provider":"The Archivary ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
