a new wave for dior
~
The Dior 2011 Ready to Wear show was a true work of art. The collection was inspired by the enduring style of the French New Wave. The moment I set eyes on this collection I was instantly reminded of some amazing photos I saw taken by Tom Palumbo. The photos, like Galliano's most recent collection, seem classic and decidedly French. I was intrigued to find out that the photos were taken in 1962 during the week that Yves Saint Laurent debuted his own fashion line - dispelling any concerns left over from his 5 year stint at Christian Dior.
