John Galliano, the chief designer of France’s haute couture flagship – Christian Dior, is one of the most influential fashion designers of our time. He said: “I am here to make people dream, to seduce them into buying beautiful clothes and to strive to make amazing clothing to the best of my ability. That is my duty.”

This collection is said to be Galliano’s salute to René Gruau, the illustrator who worked for Christian Dior in the forties and fifties. He created the house’s most iconic imagery and felt it gave him another opportunity to indulge his passion for an era when couture was truly haute.

In this collection, you can find chiaroscuro everywhere. The interplay of light and shade shows that hand-painting fabric would have been the simplest way to achieve the desired result. Galliano and his studio used seven layers of tulle to create a shimmering depth of dégradé. Embroidery was used on one side of the fabric only, so it cast a subtle relief shadow.
