Couture: Crisitian Dior Fall 09

Come along, we're having a little garden party. We'll drink tea and wine, gossip with and about one another. We might later slowly undress and find ourselves in our knickers, but that's okay, this happens at every other garden party. I'm hardly phased. Perhaps we'll go shopping later.

excellent layering, looks hard to move in, but as usual, looking great on the body

Old Hollywood glamour meets kinky housewife. Puffy skirts, petticoats, skirt suits and lingerie. This collection is especially colorful, compared to most of what I've seen around this season. It also has that signature Dior elegance that can be found in the pinks and creams. What is especially delightful about this collection is that there is plenty of ease around the pieces when assembling an outfit. Literally interpreting the pieces from the runway is hardly ever necessary, yet this collection has the weight of being incomplete, which completely works to their advantage.
