Raf Simons' Dior Debut

Set to a floral backdrop, not to mention the fashion world waiting with baited breath, Raf Simons debuted his first collection for Christian Dior at Paris Fashion Week on Monday. It was the snakes and ladders of fashion, with Raf Simons rising from Jil Sander to Dior, and John Galliano falling down from favour after an anti-semitic rant in 2011. The haute couture collection showed references to Simons' last show for Jil Sander (see here), with cashmere pink, blood red and navy blue bodiced dresses and 1950's shaped coats. A welcome simplicity and return to form.

Very impressive collection. Raf's view of Dior is quite different from former John Galliano. Galliano liked details, Raf likes silhouettes.
