0-colettethumb

Youthful purity seemed to be the running theme of Collette Dinnigan’s spring/summer 2011 collection. Skewing just this side of tween-set territory, Dinnigan presented a lineup of girlish frocks and cute silhouettes in spring-appropriate cottons and lace.

Sheer outrageousness and over-the-top extravagance are synonymous with a John Galliano affair, and, like his collection for Dior, the designer’s spring/ summer 2011 namesake show was no exception.

It’s couture time in Paris, and kicking things off -– in a big way -– was John Galliano. Dior’s Fall 2011 couture collection is one for the records as nods to Mother Nature resulted in exquisite and undeniably imaginative takes on the flower.
