Karlie Kloss New Face of Christian Dior

John Galliano personally cast Karlie Kloss to star in his spring 2010 Christian Dior campaign, excited to see the first images!
RUNWAY: Christian Dior Spring 2010
John Galliano travelled back in time to the 1940’s for his Spring 2010 collection, bringing some modern versions of mini trench coats and a hell-of- a lot of lingerie inspired pieces. Things remained pretty true to the Dior house, sexy while keeping classy and affluent. I can’t say there’s anything jaw dropping about this collection, but it’s gorgeous, so not too many complaints from this peanut gallery!
Happy 10th J’adore!

It’s the 10th anniversary of Christian Dior’s J’adore perfume! In light of the birthday, the company has released some backstage photos of Charlize Theron on her shoots for the fragrance. The face of J’adore looks great in her newest photos for the product.

ADDICT: Christian Dior Decides Against Traditional Campaign
These Marion Cotillard advertisements for Lady Dior (above – old, I know!) are here to stay but models and traditional advertising are gone. Fall 2009’s seasonal ads have been replaced with “star power” that is supposed to “give more meaning” and will more successfully “represent the values of a company”. That’s Dior CEO Sidney Toledano speaking, and I’m not trying to pick a fight, but Dior ads featuring models will certainly be missed.

RUNWAY RUNDOWN: Christian Dior Fall 2009 Couture Show

John Galliano sent the models at the Christian Dior Couture show 1/2 dressed. Rescission friendly idea, shock tactic or laziness? You decide.

High End Fashion’s Retreat from Moscow

The most expensive city in the world, Moscow has seen a downgrade in its available fashions. Once a home to all big luxury retailers, the time has come for many to move on.
Designers are closing their Russian outposts and retreating from Moscow after months of disappointing sales, with Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood among those forced to pull down the shutters. This includes other Euorpean designers such as Dior and Chanel.

BEHIND THE BEAUTY: Dior

If you haven’t heard by now that Christian Dior 2009 Haute Couture spectacle était fe’roce, as Christian Siriano from Project Runway would say…FIERCE. The models, hair, makeup, dresses, backdrops, and music-very couture. I am so ready to see these looks hit the mainstream this fall.
The bar jacket which is my favorite was the item that had all the women buzzing. It is definitely the iconic piece of the collection bringing the waistline back. You will notice that they played with a lot of fabrics like ruffles, a texture that they started out with then silk chiffon. A way the designer likes to bring a sexual undercurrent into their new direction. The collection was not extravagant, but highly sophisticated with intricate details. The jackets that added panels of fabric cascading like a waterfall or the outfits where all volume is carried on the hips, not forgetting the belts, left me speechless. Let me stop blabbing and let you enjoy the show for yourself.
WTF!?! Alek Wek #fashionfail

Alek Wek seems to have mixed up the Golden Globes for a night of clubbing in the Meat Packing District. The model decided to alter this Christian Dior dress converting it into a horrid Forever 21 rejected mini.
