[SHSH]

His work remindes me so much of Balenciaga but is still unique at the same time amazing stuff!

 

[ponytrot]

YAY!

love seeing his designs out on women - he really does know how to make clothes that celebrate the female form and move so well in real life.

photos from model Gail Elliott's 1988 wedding to John Chapoulis.

her white rayon & lycra sheath wedding dress was especially designed for her by Alaia, the bridesmaids wore white school blazers over short pleated skirts, also by Alaia.

Victoria Beckham looks incredible in all of those photos.
That skirt is beautiful.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

Even though i am half Michelle's age i would totally wear that grey dress with tulle underskirt, its stunning, wow. Carla and VB (i believe her scarf is AA to) look fantastic as well in his clothes, i love that first ladies are wearing him a lot lately.

Thanks for all the pictures Giovana4ya.

And Proximity thanks so much for scanning that page, never knew he did/does? wedding dresses, its breathtaking.

Michelle wears those dresses really well! She's definitely my favourite of the 3 posted.

I like the pieces Victoria is wearing but I don't like them on her. I prefer Alaia on someone with curves.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

^I feel the opposite, i think he gives women with tiny frame's like VB, curves. I think his clothes look good on all shapes though.

He also designed Stephanie Seymour's wedding dress (as well as Naomi Campbell's who was the maid of honour).

I can't stand Alaia's clothes on any of the women mentioned on this page (nor for the first ladies nor on VB ).I can't stand the way they wear it, it doesn't suit them (Carla is far frombeing an Alaia girl, she looks like a flight attendant half of the time these days, Michelle Obama, I'm sorry, but her figure is so butch and so unfeminine, and VB has that lollipop shaped figure that makes her look ridiculous).

^^WOW i have never seen that before, thanks for posting.

Its very see through for a wedding dress though? Not sure about that, but it looks beautiful anyway, makes me want to touch it.

 

[nanker_phledge]

I guess the headpiece was made to hide the 'indecent parts' (same with Naomi's coat that hides the revealing dress) during the ceremony and she took it off afterwards.

 

[*ana*]

michelle obama looks really good in the fringe dress, and carla bruni looks great as usual. victoria is just tragic.

 

[thiago:)]

Wow, Victoria looks fantastic!
I love Azzedine's creations, but I have a doubt... When did he last present a collection? I don't know how can I call this, maybe an official one...
Carine's been always using his pieces in editorials styled by her... I saw one that she used twice in 2006... On the cover of November 2006 (Paris Hilton) and also in October, featuring russian models.
