Resurrection is pleased to present a pair of Christian Dior articulated brown leather pumps, an exceptional example of the house’s early 2000s fascination with armor-like construction and distressed romanticism under John Galliano. Sculptural and fiercely feminine, the design merges artisanal craftsmanship with a rugged, almost medieval sensibility.

Crafted in richly textured brown leather, the pumps feature layered articulated panels across the pointed toe and vamp, each accented with antiqued brass studs that emphasize the shoe’s architectural construction. The openwork silhouette wraps the foot in asymmetrical straps and cutouts, creating a balance between structure and exposure. An adjustable ankle strap with a brass buckle secures the design, while the carved stacked heel continues the segmented motif, lending the shoe a dynamic, sculptural profile from every angle.

The distressed leather finish and raw-edged paneling evoke Galliano’s signature approach to historical references—transforming utilitarian and equestrian inspirations into highly sensual luxury objects. The elongated pointed toe sharpens the silhouette, contrasting beautifully with the organic texture and weathered surface treatment of the leather.

This pair of Christian Dior articulated leather pumps has been carefully curated by Resurrection as part of its luxury vintage collection, representing an era in which Galliano pushed Dior footwear into the realm of collectible fashion sculpture through innovation, craftsmanship, and theatrical design.
