Christian Dior F/W Haute Couture 2010 - 2 (Collections)

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!

Jean Paul Gaultier F/W 2010 Haute Couture (Collections)

Burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese made her debut on Gaultier's runway, strutting in a floor-length black semi-shear gown with added curves such as shoulders and hips. Shoulder pads were everywhere; added to trenches and couture gowns. Gathered head-dresses, and hair skyrocketed into the air. Models with cigarette holders at hand. The collection; dominant, elegant, and poised. Blacks, leather browns and nude beige, furs in gradient white and gray, yellows-greens, and velvet royal blues. And a touch of lavender. Gaultier finishes the collection with a hybrid wedding gown, violin at hand. View the complete collection, here.

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

Asymmetrical Pink Dress on Form (Garment)

I love to drape fabric on the dress form, it's extremely liberating, and all creative thoughts flow into the garment. I am using a gorgeous pink satin for the three asymmetrical straps, the dress is in a semi-sheer. Very light and flows. The perfect delicate and feminine spring dress.

Critique & Comment, it is greatly appreciated.


J'aime au tissu de tentures sur la forme de robe, il libère extrêmement, et toutes les pensées créatives coulent dans le vêtement. J'utilise un satin rose magnifique pour le trois asymétrique sangle, la robe est dans un à demi pur. Très léger et coule. La robe de printemps parfaite, délicate et féminine.
