Little Blog of Rho: Dior Couture A/W 10

With Couture Week being over and peeking at all the collections only one stood out, Dior. One word to describe John Galliano's for Dior Couture Fall 2010 line? Brilliant. Recently I thought Couture would slowly lose it's prestigious title due to the lack of interest and buzz around recent collections. Some collections were disappointing as if they were made like a Ready-to-Wear line with black trousers and white blouses (boring). I have always loved fashion and the idea of Couture: intricate, hand-made, custom and more important CREATIVE.

That brings me back to Dior Couture Fall 2010, the words I described couture explains John Galliano's collection on the dot. Fall collections usually are darker colors, wools and wovens. To my surprise Dior collections had floral inspirations, bright and bold colored pieces walking down the runway, I honestly thought I was looking at a Spring line. As I looked at the through the collection, I just kept thinking "WOW this Couture line is one of the best I have seen in a long time." John Galliano thought this whole process through from the large flowers on the stage of the runway and the girl's bulb-like hair and bright make-up, you felt as if you were in someone's floral garden. And you can't forget those gowns...anyone would feel like royalty if they put any of the fairy-tale gowns on. Well you can be the judge of that. These beautiful creations I could see in an array of occasions: cocktail parties, dinner date and of course, the red carpet. I wonder who will be wearing Dior at the Red Carpet, because someone has too, you cannot hate a full bottom evening dress!

I just want to thank John Galliano for making Couture (for me) exciting again. I love all the colors, whimsical feel and details put into this Couture collection. I just hope that the rest of the fashion industry can follow up on that.
