A Glimpse of RL Fashion…for SL. “Christian Dior Spring 2012 Couture Collection”

Posted on by

After the unfortunate and sad departure of John Galliano from Christian Dior, there are still a lot of talks about where the house is going with Bill Gaytten, who, in my opinion, must have such pressure taking over this mega-brand with so much hype.  His ready-to-wear collections have so far been received with so-so reviews and I must agree that they didn’t really impress me too much.

But his Couture line for the spring of 2012 was fabulous!  Although I do admit, I still miss John Galliano and his genius talent to perceive beautiful and spectacular fashion that was almost theatrical.

I know the fashion world in RL is already talking about 2012-2013 but the regular mortals such as us, we are more concerned about this coming spring!  So I decided to take up some favorites from Christian Dior’s Spring 2012 Couture line under Bill Gaytten as some of this collection definitely looks like something we can wear in SL!

The whole collection looks like a back-to-50’s type silhouette but with contemporary elements added for today.  Very elegant, fun and chic!  Definitely something I like!  So let’s see some pics from Gaytten‘s past collection for this coming spring.

Now doesn’t the poofy gowns look like something we have lots in SL?  And by presenting this, I am hoping that some talented SL designer will provide us with outfits that we can enjoy wearing in SL too!  *winks*

Gizza - Dark Feather Series II

Gizza’s Dark Feather Series runs from I to IV and here I am introducing Dark Feather Series II.  All four outfits in this series are very cool black outfits with feathers used as ornaments.

Here, I wore it with a plain black leggings and ankle boots from sYs Design.  sYs Design is well known for it’s cyber fashion items but non-cyber fashion can use a lot of what they have too.

I also wore a new jewelry set released by Kunglers from it’s Kungler Extra brand, which is their jewelry line that is sold in another building from their clothes.  The Kungler sisters are really pulling out some interesting jewelry pieces and if you are looking for some pieces with impact, this is definitely a place to check out.
