Our Favourite Paris Haute Couture Shows: Christian Dior




To be honest, we haven't been amazed by a Christian Dior show for a quite a
time. However, the S/S 2011 couture show exceeded all our expections and
confirmed the greatness that John Galliano is capable of.
Taking inspiration from the illustrations by René Gruau, an artist who became famous in the 1900s, John Galliano brought these drawings to life in his decadent interpretations.
Truly beautiful.

Check out the breath-taking show below:

Our Favourite Paris Haute Couture Shows: Elie Saab





If there was one word to sum up Elie Saab, consistency would probably be it. Season after season the collections that Elie Saab has brought out have wowed us. The intricacy on every piece really shone through this season. A fresh pastel colour palette ushers in spring; perfect for the awards season.
Expect to see some of these amazing gowns on the red carpet.

Our Favourite Paris Haute Couture Shows: Zuhair Murad











Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad presented his Spring/Summer 2011 couture collection during Paris’ Fashion week at the Ritz Hotel. A collection that totally blew us away! A perfect mix of embellishment and luxury fabrics shows us a modern take on Middle Eastern glamour.
Zuhair Murad has done it again!

From Lookbook to Red Carpet: Mila Kunis in Alexander McQueen



























Black Swan star Mila Kunis looked gorgeous in an Alexander McQueen dress from the 2011 resort collection. Maybe Mila should have lost the belt and added a chunky necklace to improve but we still love it!

SAG Awards 2011: White With It.





Well, it seemed that white was the colour of the evening.
Our favourite gowns in white were Lea Michele in Oscar de la Renta and a heavily pregnant Natalie Portman in a simple Azzaro gown accompanied by $2 million worth of Tiffany & Co. jewelry!
Amazing!

Jessica Alba At The French Vogue Dinner


The sexy Jessica Alba attended a dinner thrown by French Vogue in honour of Gucci designer Frida Giannini wearing a one-of-a-kind Gucci creation. We love the simplicity of the hair, and that golden tan works well with her dress choice. Beautiful!
