//59/ Dress: Dior Spring 2011 Campaign

Dior Spring 2011 Campaign
Photography: Steven Meisel
Model: Karlie Kloss

//Surprisingly of all the new campaigns coming out for the season this is one of my favourite despite the fact that I don't particularly like Karlie Kloss (though she is growing on me). I like the clear island-style inspiration and the poster-like rework...

//58/ Dress: Louis Vuitton Cruise Catalogue 2011

Louis Vuitton Cruise 2011
Photography: Mark Segal
Model: Anne Vyalitsyna

//Sometimes prim and pretty seems appealing to me. Other times it is purely overbearing. In this case the excessive pink and haughty poses are almost too much. I adore 40s, 50s-inspired clothing, but here I find that the throwback is too reminiscent of a time when women were confined to the kitchen and their biggest challenge was keeping up a proper appearance...maybe I am exaggerating a little??

//Having said that there are definitely bits and pieces from this collection that I wouldn't mind owning :)
