DIVINE DIVINE DIVINE DIOR!! AMAZING! I just absolutely adore it!

 

[IAmLordZen]

I don't like this at all


P.S.: Why is everyone HOTLINKING?! It's not allowed. I know it's tempting to be the first one posting an image but 1) making a new post for every pic is spamming and 2) hotlinking is not allowed and all the posted images will most likely disappear after a while, so upload to an imagehost, please

thank you for pointing out this concern.

sometimes websites change their linknames and in the end we can't see the images if they are hotlinked and it steals bandwidth from nowfashion which is, like, a valuable resource or something.

the feathered dress made me palpitate. STUNNING. behold a dress from the fashion gods.

Amazing set too, the red-black rotating stage thing isn't a novel idea but it's superbly executed. and wow the opening dresses were fantastic as well. it's so sad i can't spend too much time poring on this collection ATM. I hope the HQs will floor us.

well.. not as "wow" like previous year!
some dress looks so good, but some looks ummm yeahh..

 

[Boomer]

the models look like jean patchett and what shed wear in her shoots i love it

Very true! This is old school couture- I love it all!!

 

[Style Savvy]

Beautiful collection! I love the feathered couture gown on Magdalena, though some pieces are reminiscent of past couture collections, like the one on Sigrid.

 

[Annu]

Amazing shapes!

I'm not seeing the "John Is Back" that everyone is saying. There are re-hashed silhouettes and near-complete remakes of gowns from recent seasons, but in a different pastel shade. Sure, there's more of a variety in cuts, but at the end of the day, it does not feel like anything "fresh" when we are talking of Galliano.

This is not haute couture, this is frou.

 

[FakeFlower]

Fantastic show. I love the whole feeling of it.
Some gowns at the end didn't look flattering at all though but all the others were absolutely amazing
I also really like the shoes but they look very painful to walk in :/
Why can't Dior Pret a Porter shows be as amazing as this?!?

Exactly, this is a good collection, but its not new....I even see the same embellishment and same types of beadings

 

[mackos]

Same old scene doesn't even start to describe it, to be honest.

While there are some pieces that might look interesting at first glance, taking a closer look they result to be the same silhouettes, fabrics and looks with some feathers thrown it. I only liked few of the headpieces, not much for a couture show.

Oh, and by the way, for how long are we seeing the same make-up? 15 seasons, perhaps?

yes you did

oh i love this collection

 

[gossiping]

i half love it wish there were more bright colours though

 

[mistress_f]

i don't think 'john is back!!!'.
most of those gowns have the exact same shapes and cuts of previous collections, and i hate them as much as i hated them before. BUT this is the first time in so long i see colors, shades and cuts that appeal me, especially a few of the looks made me go WOW which hadn't happened in so long so i can consider myself rather happy with this collection

 

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

i really need to see it all at once to make a complete comment,
but this looks very well executed. I am loving the hair and make-up although
on some of these girls its apparent they never need to do another Dior show.

i prefer this natural soft color, especially the color of julia saner's dress..
the mixing soft blue with soft brown.. look so beautiful!

[visualoptimism]

i really love the darker colours and the silhouettes. the theatre of it all is great and i really love the masks. all in all i really like this collection, although it's definitely not something new for dior.

 

[MyNameIs]

This is pretty. The gowns are lovely, but there is nothing new here. No edge, no moving forward, just redesigning what he's done in the past.

 

[Master Wood]

john why even bother. you once held the key to my heart. now you bore me beyond words.

 

[khyrk]

I also love love love that dress.


Oh the active viewers bar is back

 

[Miss Galliano]

I love that dress on magda's .. very couture !
