Dior by Raf Simons

      Comment  
 Just one word: perfection.

Raf Simons showed with his first collection an hommage to the style of Christian Dior, the New Look, without losing his own minimalistic style. The show opened with black pantsuits, followed by cut ball gowns worn over simple narrow black pants. Furthermore there were ball gowns, strapless gowns, coat worn as dresses and dresses with different colors on the front and back. I really like the modern take on the fifties. Raf Simons did exactly what LVMH-CEO Bernard Arnault predicted: to bring the style of Christian Dior to the 21st century.

 "I'm not interested in just doing couture that works in magazine pictures. I want it to be relevant" - Raf Simons

Confirmed: Raf Simons for Dior

      Comment  
At one point I stopped counting the potential design candidates for the succession of John Galliano at the LVMH fashion house Dior. But I can remember Haider Ackermann, Marc Jacobs, Alexander Wang and Sarah Burton. Yesterday the rumors were finally terminated. Raf Simons will replace John Gaillano. Simons said about his new job: "It is with the utmost respect for its tremendous history, its unparalleled knowledge and craftsmanship that I am joining the magnificent house of Dior. Mr Christian Dior has always been for me the most inspiring couturier. Around the globe, the name Dior symbolises the ultimate in elegance and refinement. I am truly humbled and honoured to become artistic director of the most celebrated French house in the world." Raf Simons will show his first collection for Dior in july during the haute couture shows.

Breaking News: Jil Sander for Jil Sander?

      Comment  
Raf Simons will show his last collection for Jil Sander tomorrow. The Belgian designer goes, if the rumors are correct, follow John Galliano at Dior. Jil Sander will take over the baton at Jil Sander after she abandoned her own label in 2005. Simons then took her place.
The fact is that we will have to wait to see or the rumors are true.
