John Galliano Fall 2011 Ready to Wear: I LOVE EVERYTHING!

Dear Audiences

I've read some prediction saying this collection might be the finale of John Galliano.

His career at Christian Dior might not have a next episode, but will his very own fashion house come to an end too? It was a sad question, sad that we even have to doubt it.

This collection consists of 20 garments in total. Even though they are not extreme, and carry no big piece as always. But, I would say I love them all. Every single one of them.

Look at the shoes! They are killing! LOVE!

O my god! That hair accessory!

Givenchy Fall 2011 Ready to Wear: The Violet Pansy and The Pack of Wolves.

Dear Audiences

I so love this collection of the house of Givenchy.

The stage is like a flower garden, which I assume that this violet flower is called pansy. But I'm not sure, not at all.

Never mind. Let's talk about the collection then.

This season Riccardo Tisci created a remarkable design of skirt. 

These skirts with sub-skirt are absolutely fabulous! I've seen this type of skirt before but it's nothing like these. Nothing fashionable like these.


Next up is wolves! 
I've never imagined the wolf to be 'in' for fashion before. Thought the vampire is the only mythical creature that can be trendy.

Vivienne Westwood Fall 2011 Ready to Wear: Ethnic Gold Rush.

Dear Audiences

It's all golden at Vivienne Westwood 's show, from the runway to the clothes.

The clothes are marvelous as always, but what special for this collection is a Thai model, Phitsinee Tanwiboon (Si), walked the runway!

Called me bias. I'm nationalism, people. #ThaiPride

I'm happy for her and the whole nation for finally, after many tries, we did it! Thai model walks the Paris Fashion Week.

Actually, Si was in many shows last season, for example, John Paul Gaultier and Louis Vuitton. 

"John Paul Gaultier."

"Louis Vuitton."

  


This is such a huge step for the Thai fashion industry. It proves that we can proudly stand in the world stage.

I'm so proud of her, Si Tanwiboon.

OK. Back to the collection. I think there are a lot of ethnic feel. 

Maybe the collection is inspired from the gold mining which is plentiful in Africa.

My favorite.

While We Wait...

While we wait for the anticipated Sonia Rykiel's show clip to release, I would like to take you back to the Sping/Summer 2008 Ready to Wear show.

This is my most favorite show of all time. No other show has beaten this!


First thing, I love every single piece from this collection. If I were to have all the money in the world, I would seriously buy the whole collection.

Especially, the second half to the show which the models were walking in the flaunting dresses, they are marvelous!

These are what I would wear at my wedding on the beach! I already have the image in my head.
I would definitely have her designed for me, or I would surely imitate one of the dresses from this collection!

Check this out for whoever have not seen it!

You'll regret forever if you don't.

Cheers!

Azzaro Fall 2011 Reay to Wear: Ribbon Lady in Black.

Dear Audiences

The is a pretty collection, simple with the little adorable details.

Ribbons are in almost every single piece. They are the significant detail which make the clothes are not too plain, and also add up the feminine feeling.

It's very creative and rare for someone to put the ribbon there. 

But, I love it, really.

Especially, these last two dresses are my favourite.

The Deploration of Galliano.

Dear Audiences

I hadn't felt much of the sense of involvement to John Galliano's departure.

I don't even try to find what he actually said. What I process are all second-hand information about his 'different' opinion towards the Jewish Holocaust.


No matter how much Dior wanted to keep him, they couldn't do it. They HAVE to make him go.

John Galliano is one of the genius artists of our generation. I'm not his creation's huge fan, but surely I couldn't say they are not marvelous.

Chirstian Dior's show is what I've been looking forward to every single fashion season. They are very couture. Nothing you can actually wear walking on the street on.

And, exactly, this is the true couture, the artistic thing we all should cherish and conserve.

I couldn't imagine Dior without Galliano.

But, well, I should do from now on.

Honestly, I feel extremely deplored when I view this collection.

The heels are killing!

Whoever to be in charged after John Galliano has to face tremendous amount of pressure. Not only in term of the creativity, but also in term of 'understanding the soul' of Christian Dior.
