DIOR HAUTE COUTURE FALL 2019


Okay so let’s speak of the obvious issues here. This is fall ... oui? Why are these funereal mourning clothes shown with lace up flat gladiator sandals and these confections that adorn the legs? Then in answer to her question about if the clothes are modern, I can safely say NON Madame meatball they are anything but!

Heavy-handed and apparently she hasn’t a clue how to design a dress without a  waist seam or a belt which as we all know is certainly a sticking point for women of every shape, age and size! Then we come to the interesting fact that most of the clothes absolutely swallow up the models with their volume BUT, I’m guessing that by accident, there was some dresses and jackets that are really not so bad. Certainly not exactly groundbreaking but passable as wearable and desirable for the select  few who can afford clothes that are are a cross between Morticia Addams, Suddenly Seeking Susan, Victorian  Mourning clothes. maybe a little Yohji thrown in and lastly clothes that bear  no resemblance to what Christian Dior was all about.

Anyone in this business who has been around the block a few times can verify that one shoulder dresses are indeed one of the hardest silhouettes to sell and yet here they are in quantity along with the unnecessary sheerness. I guess she was too busy researching her inspiration for this deadly morose collection of clothes. After all, what’s more important than inspiration … certainly not the clothes, certainly  not their raison d’être but oh yes the blah blah blah that is incredibly useless and pretentious when offering clothes that look like this but then again the media needs something to talk about other than the clothes

One can barely imagine the cost involved in assembling these so called couture clothes … yes I’m quite sure the workmanship is beyond  the pale though looking closely I  do have to wonder. Maybe the answer is to war the price tag on the outside of the piece to remind people how rich and tasteless you are since we do know that money does not buy taste!
