If you could choose one Haute Couture ensemble from any designer and time period, what would you choose (pictures please)

I'm having trouble choosing between this from Dior s/s 97

Hey where did u get that pic from?? Bcoz i think style.com only goes back to 2000.. not 97!! Id love to view old collections and such
Thanks

A fur top to go with it? That is pretty outrageous. Only JPG

 

[versace]

Doesnt Firstview.com cost tho?

 

[Spike413]

Only for the most recent collections. But anything going back to 95 is free. The only one's they're charging for is s/s 04 couture and f/w 04 rtw. The collections become free when the new collections come out.

If I'm spending that much money in couture, I'd rather wear a signature piece
Dior SS'03

I love this topic!!
I would either pick this CHanel:

or

this 2002 YSL:

Thanks Spike!!
And if I wear to choose a couture dress for a girl to wear, it would be this:












Only because I wouldnt spend that much on a couture piece of clothing to look ridiculous!! So yeh.. altho i havent been searching past seasons.. this is just the current look i love

Don't Versace's couture designs seem too commercial? They don't seem to be filled with the immense artictic thought that goes into a Dior ensemble. They are beautiful though no question about it! the jewel embellishment is gorgoeus but there is hardly a play on fabric.

 

[versace]

I'm saying that if i were to purchase a couture piece of clothing.. wouldnt you want something glamourous and attention-seeking considering your going to be paying that much money?? Well I think getting a Dior gown.. (talking mainly with the latest couture stuff) would be crazy as you are wearing a costume basically. . but with that versace dress i posted.. i just like it better

I hate Haute Couture

But hmm... this one is nice. I notice a lot of people fancy Dior's H.C.

after you get over the initial shock of the egyptian theme you realize the clothes are truly beautful

I like the presentation more than the clothing, I think. The music, and how the girl came out is very alluring and mysterious.

That dress is amazing if you see it up close. The top iss embroidered with coral scarab-shaped stones, the gold painted feathers, the pleating at the hem......it's gorgeous. Most of that collection was beautifully done. Wearable or not, the details are absolutely beautiful.

hear hear

Some of my personal favs from that collection.
