TOTALLY AGREE, this is Haute Couture, Dior is just boring RTW and passing it off as Couture.

This is pretty bad. And it's not even pretty. What a let down.

I'm really on the fence about this one On one hand, most of it looks like rehashing from the last collection, and I can't stand those pieces with all the frills around the neckline (I usually think wearing kooshballs on a HC garment is bad taste but that's just me). On the other hand, the styling is just so lovely (I'm a suck for net face masks) and I love the butterflies over the mouth. And even if a lot of the prints and colors are really similar to last season I can't get over some of these pieces, they're just so beautiful

I also have to agree with what some other people are saying, his RTW collections have been suffering as of late, and I don't know if it's because of his couture collection or what (I know in a recent review, they noted him saying he wants to put a separation between his HC and RTW by making the RTW more street-style and the HC more dressy) but I feel like he needs to bring back some of the dress to RTW.

It looks just like the last collection but with different prints. The only piece that I really like is the one shouldered green gown with the leaf belt. The others can be modified which I hope happens for the clients. The little golden bug accessories are really cute though. I love the ladybugs!
