Christian Lacroix HC F/W 07.08 Paris

[masquerade]

the dresses are all amazing but the hair looks like it belongs on the best of ricki lakes ~unbeweaveable~ episodes

wouldn't it be awesome if there were moving parts

This looks like a mix with Christian Lacroix HC S/S 07 and John Galliano S/S 07.

Oh, not bad. I'm not thrilled (and my initial reaction was 'ew' to all the really over the top pieces with huge mounds of fur and feathers) but there are some beautiful ones, too. I really love the colors, too. Darker than usual, yeah, but I wouldn't say so much it looks goth.

love this! much more interesting than Dior!

I agree, Dior was undeniably beautiful, but this collection seems to have numerous clashing themes like religon and darkness. This makes the beauty of this very fun to look at and thought provoking.

He's done his signature embellishments, I see. Lacroix is always a bit much for me but I can understand why his loyal clientele love him so. He's very romantic.

This looks very similar to the last Couture collection Lacroix did. Ive never liked him that much.

I wish he'd tone down the pieces a little more. He gilds the lily too much.
