One of my biggest loves of the fashion industry is couture. While it is becoming more of a dying art in recent years due to the phenomenal price tags of the pieces, this extravagance of the clothes is what I love. I believe that with couture you get to see the designers talent and passion for clothes and beauty. Even though most of the time, couture is totally impractical, this is what I love, clothes and escapism at its best!
A couture collection that I, without a doubt, love, is that of Dior. I think that the imagination and design aesthetic of John Galliano suits the nature of couture to a T. The images below are my favourite pieces of the Fall 2010 collection, happening a few days ago.
Strongly influenced by nature, these outfits provide a shape-enhancing feminine silhouette. I love the explosion of bright, beautiful, vibrant colours, qualities you imagine the women who would be able to pull off these clothes would be like.
