Christian Dior Haute Couture Paris Fall/Winter 2011
Spring? No, ma cherie. It’s Christian Dior Fall/Winter 2011. With all the floral influences, it seems that John Galliano is in a spring-y kind of mood.
He turned models into living floral arrangements with cellophane-covered faces and sky-scraping hair that blossomed all the way up to the rafters. With punchy bits of aquamarine, purple, and marigold, this was a colorful way to kick off Paris Haute Couture.
Dresses and skirts were in full bloom with bursts of sculptural flowers and bud-like draping. Even the shoes took on the garden theme with strappy heels that twisted like creeping vines.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen florals for fall, but this is quite the explosion.

I love shopping vintage because it practically guarantees that you won’t show up at a party in that same Milly dress three other girls are wearing. But when you have one-of-a-kind pieces, plus rare vintage, plus legendary designer — sweetie, you have the freaking fashion trifecta.
