Thursdays couture piece comes via Dior's Fall 09 collection. My darling friend at donutstodelirium supplied the link here to view the collection in full. She's a fellow Dior admirer.
"For Fall, John Galliano took the collection back to the dove gray salons of the Christian Dior headquarters in the Avenue Montaigne to show almost in the way the clothes were traditionally presented to clients and the press in the 1950's".
"Sans the heart-pounding stress, stadium-size crowds, and general hurly-burly, it was a lovelier, more intimate parade to behold. Galliano said he'd been inspired by behind-the-scenes documentary photographs taken more than half a century ago as Monsieur Dior dressed his cabine of mannequins for shows". comments courtesy of style.com
