We salute you.

I died.

How is it possible that so much genius could come out of one brain? :)

So once again, we see an ever-extreme, ever-extravagant Dior Couture show swathed in duchesse satin and diamond-mesh veils. Porcelain Pat McGrath makeup, nip-waists, amazing lace and leather, and shoes shoes shoes :)

J'adore, if you'll pardon the pun.

Saturday Sugar Rush.

Ageless face. I wish I could see the yellow of the John Galliano coat - I imagine it to be striking.

When their voices were soft.

And again with this little 17-year-old miss who just got cast by John Galliano for the Spring 2010 Dior campaign.

:O

Close and Personal.

Alors: it's my post-Fashion-Week favourite details post :D as per always. Candidate #1: Valentino :)

Dramatic cat-upper lids, and naked under-eyes, creeping (some barely-there) shoes, and incredible attention to composition on all scales.

Elie Saab:

Would you look at that beading and jewelling. I've also decided that I'm going to hunt down that shade of nail polish, because it's so warm and pretty.

Kenzo, I believe, simply needs credit for the shoes :) and a lot of the totes:

I loved that they balanced out a lot of the extravagant patterns and prints with nude make up and morning hair.

And who could possibly pass on John Galliano? After seeing all these details, I love it more than I did - there's a thread of 1930s feminism and Gossip Girl that I didn't see before.

As I mentioned in my other post on Galliano, every single model had a unique look, styled to perfection. [LOOK at those heels]

And the last favourite - Giles Deacon.

Fly-eye glasses, coral eyes and little bits of hardware from everyday life. :)

3 hours with Pat McGrath and you're centre stage.

Pat McGrath and Julien d'Ys worked at John Galliano to give every single model a unique look that was theatrically linked to their ensemble - it clearly worked. What I want to know is how the set crew managed to get all the bubbles in check :)
