inspirations

I'm still a fashion blog. Thus, behold my Spring 2009 Couture post ;)

Let's talk about John Galliano for Dior and Flemish and Dutch baroque art.





Or how about gypsies, gothic flamenco, and Bizet's Carmen paired with Jean-Paul Gaultier.




Finally, Joan of Arc and Givenchy.

    I got them from a French Patisserie in the city. I just discovered it last year, and I can't believe I didn't find out about it sooner!
    The Galliano dresses are beyond stunning.

    The Galliano for Dior dresses are fabulous. This is definitely my favorite Spring 2009 couture collection. Seriously, the bottom row of dresses, especially, are like a dream come true.

    If I had the money I would buy all those Dior couture gowns and wear them every day for the rest of my life. So sad that there isn't a waaaaay cheaper and more daily life version of it.
