First look at Christian Dior Haute-Couture Fall 2009

Lots of pink, orange and lime filled the Christan Dior's Fall Haute Couture Collection. But what really caught my attention was all the girdles, lace-edged slips and petticoats. Galliano said he'd been inspired by behind-the-scenes documentary photographs taken more than half a century ago as Monsieur Dior dressed his cabine of mannequins for shows. Instead of the traditional collection presentation (down the runaway, big venue, etc) Galliano choose to present it back to the dove gray salons of the Christian Dior headquarters in the Avenue Montaigne to show almost in the way the clothes were traditionally presented to clients and the press in the 1950's.

Love the intimate presentation for such an intimate collection..
