Surrealism
"Surrealism is an artistic movement that officially proclaimed its existence with the publication of the Surrealist Manifesto in 1924. The movement owes its name to French poet Guillaume Apollinaire, who in 1917 uses the term 'sur-réaliste' to describe a form of expression that surpasses realism." - musee-magritte-museum.be

Dior Haute Couture Spring/Summer 1999

"John Galliano was in surrealistic mood at his haute couture show for Christian Dior in Paris yesterday. There were jewel-encrusted fastenings shaped like oversized eyes with clock faces for irises, suits with jackets worn back-to-front and even a Magritte painting lookalike escorting a model to her pedestal centre stage." - independent.co.uk
