Dior. do me good. do me dirty.

Oh John Galliano…. why are you such a hateful person?
2008-2009 Fall Couture…
Kind of perfect isn’t it?
Dior you do me good and dirty…
Will Dior ever be the same? For years, well all my fashion life I have idolized John Galliano for his talents and his direction with Dior. But now I am still conflicted… Where are all my designers going? John Galliano and McQueen- within a one year span you both have left me. For very different reasons of course… I just miss your amazing-ness. I miss Dior’s classic couture and McQuees cutting edge couture… 
People can’t fill your shoes, but Sarah Burton is doing a good job I guess.
So conflicted… too much change…
 

one huge blurb….

Where to begin? Lets see… As you all know the fashion world is in a frenzy with the firing of John Galliano for Dior, and the new shuffle of designers… I think that is all people can talk about as of Paris fashion week. Los Angeles fashion week was bore… and most of New York’s shows were unimpressive. Black and White has been done and done- and over done and well- in all honesty it wasn’t done well this season…

On another note- I hope you are making an effort to help Japan… Whether it is purchasing this awesome print @ http://signalnoise.bigcartel.com/product/help-japan
or the Lady Gaga wristband… we should be doing our part in helping those in need.

John Galliano is the reason why I wanted to become a fashion designer. I saw his fall 1997 couture show celebrating the timeline of dior in which he used pointe shoes and made the girls chaine turn down the runway. Still to this day I think Galliano is the most talented designer. I think that Christian Siriano should be the next man behind Dior, I honestly think he has the potential to be amazing. Then me. hahaha kidding on that part. Everything about Dior Couture is fantastic, and John Galliano is doing a great job. Even this year’s ready to wear fall was great and so beautiful. The picture above is from my favorite fashion show ever. It was flawless.
