This was the show everyone had been waiting for, every since the infamous firing of Galliano in march of 2011 the fashion world seeked and anticipated the next designer who would take the legendary helms of the house! For about a whole year bill gayten a designer i muchly hated for his boring unimaginative collections! Then on February the emotional and fantastic final Raf Simons show for the house of Jil Sander lead us to think..... will he be hired at dior? Then the day came the announcement that was a year in the making the gossip and speculation had ended, just about every designer was rumored for the jobs the ones i remember most were jason wu,marc jacobs,albar elbaz,stefano pilliti and Raf simons! Raf got the job the fashion world sighed with relief, the house of Dior was in very safe hands! Yesterday at his debt show the whole fashion world was watching!
The debt collection was shown in the most wonderful surroundings five separate rooms all dressed in the most amazing display of flowers! "Isn't this amazing? A million flowers" this is what the most powerful woman in fashion Anna Wintor said to the most magnificent woman in fashion Grace Goddington! Just shows how impressive this floral display was! Everyone was left mesmerized by these millions of flowers it was certainly Beauty Overload!!! Not only were the millions of flowers impressive but so was the front row that had everyone talking, so many desigeners were sitting front row to support raf just to name a few marc jacobs,alber elbaz,Dian von Frustenberg,Ricardo Tisci,L'wren Scott,azzedine alia,oliver theyskins and Donetella Versace! So everyone was deeply excited there was one of the most major fashionable front rows,an amazing floral set up and an anticipation for this collection that was so long in the waiting!
The show opened with sharp totes fab black minimalist suits they stopped my heart, i could just see the master craftsmanship,the clean lines, i couldn't believe people saying this wasn't couture its "to minimalist" this was couture in such a pure form it was quality that couldn't be matched it was a minimalist black suit that stopped ure heart for a moment what isnt couture and magical about! It was also somthing new, it was a new form of couture it was modern couture! These opening sleek suits were just the begging of this landmark collection it was Rafs "NEW LOOK" and we were witnessing it right before are eyes.
The collection progressed staying minimalist and sharp the next few looks were stunning minimalist sharp coats that were very tight at the waist due to a metallic belt, and omg how fabulous did that look! The waist was so so small it hit you in the face this silhouette was so powerful and yet simple,old school made new! It was another powerful couture moment that raf had created and once again my heart slightly stopped!
As the collection progressed it got that little bit more "Couture" it wasn't just the sleek sharp tailoring that stopped your heart it were the unique magical touches that made everything light as air or glisten freely in the light! First there were the heavenly old school embroidered items mixed with sharp modern minimalism that was very raf it was Old school Couture meets 2012 Raf Simons and it worked to absolute perfection! This peplum and pant look was simply the couture Master couture embroidery on top and a sleek master tailored pant on bottom it was this fab contrast that was so clear that made it new fresh and so exciting!
Ok now lets talk the most talked about couture thing there is EMBELLISHMENT!!! Omg the emellishment in this collection just made your toes Curl! It added such a couture touch, it made everything glisten angelically! The embellishment is a couture institution if a couture collection doesn't have any its not worth your time, and this collection cleverly didn't saturate you with if like *cough *cough elie saab, Rafs dior collection gave the perfect amount of minimalist tailoring,embellishment,old school embroidery,tulle,chiffon etc he gave us a little bit of everything in a new way! Some of my fav embellished pieces would have to be the the tailored pant suit very minimalist raf but there was a crystal caviar waist which is such fine couture! Also the 2 sided gowns and stunning blue netted dress!
Finally have to talk about the stunning dress's! My favorite were 3 stunning 50s prom dresses that im calling cloud dresses as there texture is that of fluffily clouds and they glided through the air in a mesmerizing form it was so pure and emotional these dresses were definitely that magical couture moment!
In this revolutionary couture collection that "Has changed the landscape of couture" raf has made a "New Look" that has married old and new to make something dazzling and stunning! This is something i will remember for some time to come and i expect this to be the start of a long journey with Raf at Dior I expect him to be at the brand for probably another 20 years so buckle up and lets enjoy this ride!
