The house of Christian Dior has experienced a great upheaval since it fired John Galliano for making anti-Semitic remarks, but the show went on earlier today to a subdued crowd of attendees. And the mood continued in the collection, which was devoid of Galliano's trademark dramatic theatrics in makeup and design. Instead, the house showed a more tailored and elegant collection composed of tweed skirts, velvet trousers, decadent fur coats, and jacquard knickers, along with floor-sweeping capes and coats. However, it was the evening wear that caught our attention: muted pastel-hued ruffled dresses appeared evoking a soft ethereal feel, and for the more dramatic, the brand created sheer lace gowns paired with streamlined blazers.
* Trends: Boudoir-inspired gowns, tweed suiting, jacquard prints, ruffle embellishments.
