Dior Fall 2009 Couture

runway update

Bringing back the couture from the 50's at the house of Dior, Galliano once again knows his craft as the best in the business. Sexy bustiers and laced girdles set the tone for his collection. With lots of bright colours, bar peplum jackets and amazing evening gowns, Dior's couture show was as usual, outrageously fabulous. Judge for yourself. Love Dior.

(check out the blue feathered hat, quite similar to Balenciaga's 40's shoulder span hat)

Fall Fashion Week 2009

runway update

Some designers dare to go different from the rest. More dramatic, theatrical, opulent and glamorous were the collections of Galliano and McQueen this fall. Both brought a sense of romanticism and great craftmanship to the stage.

Alexander McQueen

McQueen's sense of humour came back in his use of recycled materials as headgears and satire hommage to some of fashion's most famous looks like Dior's New Look, Chanel tweed suits and YSL wrapover dress.

Alexander McQueen

Galliano's collection shows a story with inspirations from Ukrainian virgin brides, mixed with poetry and romance. He worked with some new volumes and shapes, super high heels with pom pom details, beautiful embroidered folkloric and spun-silver bias cut dresses.

Rodarte- Fashion with an extreme romantic twist

designer update

One of my favorite designers at the moment are Kate and Laura Mulleavy. Together they are the face behind Rodarte. Drama and romance is what their clothes epitomize. They have great sense of mixing various fabrics together like leather, chiffon, wool and lace. Rodarte was founded in 2005 and since then became a phenomenal asset to the fashion culture. They have received several awards in the fashion industry and gained recognition from many celebrities like Keira Knightley and Kirsten Dunst. I love it...fabulous!!
