Poison Ivy [Christian Dior Couture Fall 2010]

Flower Power was the theme at Christian Dior's fall couture show, and we're not talking hippies here. Dramatist extraordinaire, John Galliano paired bold colors with extreme silhouettes to create a romantic and fantastical collection. He gives us a lesson in volume with sky high hair (wrapped in florists' plastic) and very full skirts. The hard make up and dramatic hair made for a surprisingly complementary contrast against the soft ruffles, plumage and ruching. While I absolutely admire Galliano's craftsmanship, I rarely appreciate his aesthetic; this collection is certainly an exception. Enjoy!
