The Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week Spring-Summer 2011 began

The Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week Spring-Summer 2011 began yesterday. It will continue 4 days. Most interesting during the first day was the Christian Dior fashion show. This time when creating his collection for Dior, John Galliano was inspired by the work of Rene Gruau - a famous artist-illustrator.

Tight jackets, magnificent shoulders, deep necklines and tailored skirts to the knee were the center of the collection with 1950s flavour. Galliano went all-out for volume, enveloping his models in layers of tulle as they flowed down the runway.

The evening dresses are traditionally decorated with feathers, appliques and embroideries.

On Monday their Spring/Summer 2011 Haute Couture collections also presented Zuhair Murad, Georges Hobeika, Francois Eymeric, Alexis Mabille, Armani Prive, Bouchra Jarrar, Christophe Josse and Alexandre Vauthier.
