Spring 07 Haute Couture

A bit delayed, but I want to keep a record of this. My favorites were Dior and Jean Paul Gaultier. John Galliano's Madam Butterfly-themed collection was sensational. The origami pleating is what stole the show. Jean Paul Gaultier created absolutely beautiful pieces for his stained-glass saint collection. The headdresses were beautiful. I cannot choose a favorite from these two collections, but here are samples of them.

Dior:


Jean Paul Gaultier:

and I just love the update on monastic robes:



Armani Privé:
I liked this collection. Especially for its 'maharaja' influences.


Elie Saab:
I loved the ethereal Arthur-era quality of The Bride and her bridesmaids.
