Christian Dior S/S 2011 Haute Couture - Collections

50's Parisienne glamour at Dior.

Galliano surprises viewers by giving an aesthetic twist to spring at the opening of the Dior 2011 show. Reds and blacks draped across Karlie Kloss as she opens the show, similar to the the Purple frock she wore at the Fall 2010 show. The collection consisted of an elegant color scheme of pastel, some spring colors popped in and out. Dramatic silhouettes and an excess of glamor that I have been so longing to see. The couple dresses at the finale are incredible, I could just imagine the amount of time & effort it took to create this collection.

Tell me what you think. Did Galliano play it too safe?

Here are my favorite looks:

Have you noticed the new banner "above"! Yes, it is CD Fall-Winter 2010. Here's the details from the collection. View my favorite looks from the previous post 1, here

Words - cannot possibly describe these incredibly fabulous and amusing details. Enjoy with your sense of sight.

A delightful twist to the somber color-palette of winter and definite start to the Paris couture shows. Galliano gives fall a much needed explosion of color and decadence. The inspiration was clear - in this collection "Florals!", also stemmed from the 1959 S/S "Tulip" Collection. Yards and yards of tulle and multi-hued fabrics feathered, ruched, and ruffled!

Since I am so devout to Galliano, I decided to sketch three different looks from this collection!
