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

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*

Orage Creations by the Italian designer Elettra Gausman has a new release called “Sexy Rhi” which was inspired by a real life dress made by Stella McCartney that was worn by the British R&B vocalist, Rhianna.

It is a very sexy all-lace mermaid gown that is all open on one side revealing the entire body!  And the SL version comes with a sculpty skirt prim that works great with photo shoots as well as a flexi prim version which looks better when you need to walk.  Here, I am using the sculpty skirt prim.

I matched this with a jewelry set from “Jewelry by Zuri” which is a brand BLVD Agency, where I am CEO, did a show for on the BLVD Agency Runway.  This set comes with a choker as well as a chained necklace which can be used together or separately.  Here I wore both the choker and the necklace.

For my makeup, I emphasized the eye makeup, using a cats eye eye shadow with pale nude coloured lips for a more couture look.
