Actor Hrundi V. Bakshi (Peter Sellers) is the epitome of clumsiness. After inadvertently blowing up a fort on a film set, he’s about to be blacklisted by the studio head, General Fred R. Clutterbuck, but for a twist of fate he gets an invitation for an exclusive dinner party at the Clutterbucks. Needless to say, he causes trouble in every single room he visits.

This is the second bathroom he visits in the lavish mansion: there’s a small dressing table in it, so it’s probably used mostly by Alice, the general’s wife. On one shelf hanging on the wall we can see a houndstooth bottle by Christian Dior. The front label is impossible to read, so we can make some guesses: it could be Miss Dior (created by Paul Vacher and Jean Carles in 1947), Diorissimo (created by Edmond Roudnitska and launched in 1956), Diorama (another Roudnitska creation from 1948) or even Diorling (a chypre creation by Paul Vacher launched in 1963).


On the dressing table on the right there’s Lanvin Arpège in the classic boule noire bottle.
