Top 10 from Christian Lacroix Spring 2008 Couture Collection

When it comes to Haute Couture, Christian Lacroix never lets me down. I must admit, when Haute Couture season is around the corner, this is the collection i look forward to most. Lacroix showcased dozens of beautiful gowns, each with their own unique detail being made of chiffons, refined embroidery and beautiful laces. I loved loved loved the ombre styled stockings! Genius!

Top 10 from Chanel Spring 2008 Couture Collection

Karl Lagerfeld's Chanel Spring 2008 Couture Collection was as i suspected, classic tweed jackets, detailed brooches and stunningly beautiful beading. In particular, i quite liked the soft roses and ballerina flats as well as the feathered and fringed party dresses, it gave the collection a sense of youth.

Top 10 from Armani Privé Spring 2008 Couture Collection

Giorgio Armani's Spring 2008 Haute Couture collection left me speechless. His exploration with materials such as plastic, crystal, and metallics left me gob smacked. His gowns consisted of delicate draping and pleats which were complimented by the subtle colors of washed grays and pale yellows. A beautiful collection.

Straight off the runway: Julianne Moore

Actress, Julianne Moore attended the 150th Anniversary dinner of Boucheron in Paris yesterday. She wore a simple gray Yves Saint Laurent dress from the spring 2008 collection. I'm still yet undecided with Moore's look, a brighter color would have made the overall look more interesting.

Straight the runway: Christian Dior Couture Edition

The Christian Dior Spring 2008 Couture Collection brought out the best of designer John Galliano. The collection was a mix of extreme trapeze silhouettes and hand painted gowns. Obviously a designer with such a high profile as John Galliano comes with a string of high profile celebrities.

Top 10 from Christian Dior Spring 2008 Couture Collection

The one thing that i absolutely love about John Galliano is that he never fails to deliver, and in this instance he delivered fabulously! The Christian Dior Spring 2008 Couture Collection was filled with amazing pieces of stunningly beautiful gowns with their intricate embroideries and delicate hand-paintings. A trend that has continued to be obvious in many collections are the bright colors and neons. I really can't get over the fourth yellow dress, its jaw dropping.
