I know fashion editors have criticised the Dior Spring Summer 2012
show last month - which was the first one not designed by Galliano - saying it was
quite boring and lacking this sense of show that Galliano was a master
of.
I personally loved the show. I was quintessentially Dior, very
elegant, very timeless, very 60’s but very modern. I mean look at these
sunglasses!
To me, this collection was going back to the roots, going back to
Christian Dior himself. It was like taking a big breath of fresh air,
trying to catch up you breathe before taking a big jump. Before they get
on a new designer who will incorporate his/her aesthetics, this was a
true Christian Dior collection.
How about you, did you like the collection? And what do you think about the Dior/Galliano thing?
I liked it too, and I agree, it worked. You have to be brave to actually create a subtle and grown up collection for a house that meant exuberance and forever-young last season.
