Porcelain Vase

Christian Dior Spring 2009 Haute Couture





























Credit : Style.com, Fakingfashion @ LJ

Doesn't these outfits remind you of those very delicate porcelain vases?! The tight waists, full skirts & ruffles are so pretty! The hem-line is really interesting too. Someone please tell me how I can do the back of my hair like that please. & the shoes! THE SHOES!
I have to go now because I have a presentation tomorrow & I hadn't really prepared my speech cause all I did yesterday was furiously refreshing TFS to see whether anyone uploaded pictures from Chanel & Christian Lacroix's Haute Couture collection. Love Karl Lagerfeld 's concept of paper & the patterned tights in Christian Lacroix's!

Kay, it is 11.22PM here now. Presentation at 8AM. Gotta go!

    I like the shoes too, but I like the SKIRTS on the dresses way more! Wow, can you imagine walking around in those? I love the detailing on the first and third, and the red one, and the volume! The first couple definitely make me think of vases, especially because they're blue and white like china plates!
