First things first- Did John Galliano change is name to Monchichi Galliano because he looks straight up Monchichi. That hair! Kidding, how can I mock the genius known as John Galliano! He’s done it again! Brilliant designs for Christian Dior’s Spring Couture line with fabrics dyed to look like watercolors and cuts that are distinctly [...]

Goodness Gracious! These gowns are to die for … Seriously, Marchesa needs to pack up and move to Paris because that is where they belong- amongst the incredible haute couture houses of our time. Let’s start with the stunning shoulder/neck jewelry on some of the dresses. I love love love the glitz and glamour it [...]

John Galliano decide to shower us with a bouquet of flowers including the plastic floral wrap. All he was missing was the powdered flower food that no one every uses [insert own drug joke here]. I like how Galliano ignores the “plastic can suffocate“ for his models. But that’s not important… Take a look at [...]

Designer Guo Pei is Hong Kong’s answer to Alexander McQueen. Cutting edge and beautiful, Pei is finds the balance between Eastern elegance and Western modernism. Those shoes are fan-friggin-tastic! And the dress in the last photo is gorgeous! If you drop an earring or something, you’ll never lose it! The blue and white gown reminds me [...]
John Galliano-Fall 2010- Fashionable Mountain Ladies

John Galliano’s Fall 2010 collection was pretty genius in my book. I really loved the folkloric theme and the muted grey colors. It was like a mountain lady was going to a really fancy function and none of the city gals pointed and laughed anymore because the mountain lady actually looked better than the city [...]
Christian Dior Haute Couture- Spring 2010- Sharp as a Whip!

Horseback riding, Gibson girls, and vintage Charles James gowns gave John Galliano his inspiration for his couture show. I am a big fan of the horseback-riding look, all the way down to the riding crop. I think it’s an elegant sport, and horses are just so majestic and gentle. So naturally, I loved this collection. If I had [...]
Christian Dior Fall 2009 Couture- Fabulous!

Dior’s Fall 2009 Couture Collection echoed a better era for fashion (in my opinion)- The 1950s. In the 50s, clothes were more feminine and had a an innocent edge to it and impeccable quality that today’s mass produced clothes cannot compete with. Also the silhouette, was perfect for any body type. Luckily, with the few [...]
Christian Dior Spring Couture 2009- Magnificent!

John Galliano never ceases to amaze me. So many wonderful creations from a man that could be mistaken for your neighborhood eccentric on a bike decorated with junk. But see, that is what makes Galliano’s designs so cutting edge and fresh, everything he touches has a flair of punk and irony. That is why [...]
