Video: Spring Summer 2010 Haute Couture: John Galliano for Dior
Hilary Alexander of The Telegraph has a first look at the Spring Summer 2010 John Galliano for Dior haute couture show. Galliano showed off his immense talents for both showmanship and structure with an equestrian themed show that borrowed heavily from turn of the century fashions, from 1890 - 1910. The hair referenced both the Gibson Girl and the styles of Marie Antoinette.
Grey streaks showed Galliano embracing the gray hair trend seen on youthful hipsters in London lately. The fitted jackets, peplums and lengthy, pegged skirts were flattering and absolutely gorgeous. The evening gowns were fit for either a Cecil Beaton formal portrait or in some cases an evening at Versailles with Empress Eugenie. Take a look:
Lara Stone is on the front cover of Vogue UK's December issue wearing a Dior Haute Couture white tulle corset dres. She was photographed by Mario Testino. Vogue UK calls Lara the "girl of the year" which is appropriate since Lara Stone has been talked about everywhere this year.
Last year's Best Actress Oscar winner Marion Cotillard looked fantastic in her midnight blue and black Dior Haute couture gown. The dress featured a fitted bodice, classic belt, and a layered tulle skirt with transparent sequined overlay. She accessorized with a diamond necklace and earrings from Chopard, and a statement ring. She carried a Dior clutch.
Sarah Jessica Parker looked truly lovely at the Oscars in her
fabulous Dior Couture gown. She described the color to Ryan Seacrest
as "barely mint." She accessorized with gold and diamond earrings and bracelet by Fred Leighton. We like her new, darker hair color and her makeup looked beautiful. Sarah's husband Matthew Broderick then confided that his tuxedo was "barely black."
