Rihanna in Herve Leger by Max AzriaAside from looking as if it has strutted out of an episode of Game of Thrones, this bondage, statuesque bronze dress would hug every curve of Rihanna’s body and crown her with the title of Bad Girl of Pop. Accentuating the singer’s natural curves, this dress would sculpt Sasha Fierce into the statuesque beauty that she is, causing a series of mouths to drop in unison. 1211729-beyonce-marchesa-fashion-week-2011-600īeyonce in MarchesaPerhaps after Beyonce births her sure-to-be gorgeous baby and quickly regains her rockin body, she can stun all in this ethereal, yet fierce, metallic gown by Marchesa.After her VMA aggressive, male alter ego appearance, it would be lovely to see a more demure, angelic side to Gaga. This toned down, ultra feminine, neutral look would shock and attract more attention than would one of her outrageous numbers. A refreshing, stark expression of grace, the CK gown would reveal an angelic side to the usually flamboyantly dressed pop sensation. Lady Gaga in Calvin Klein CollectionThis nude and pure creation would take on a new meaning on Lady Gaga. Simple, elegant, and classic Taylor would show all that she is not a girl, not yet a woman, but a beautiful mature fashion icon in this scarlet plunging neckline dress. Taylor Swift in Oscar de la Renta The glamour and grace that is Taylor Swift would be framed with this red Oscar de la Renta creation. Curiouser and curiouser, as the decision on the Dior succession continues to dangle like a hanging chad. Something else to consider: In its charmingly unfinished tentativeness, this felt like the sort of collection a designer might offer if he was laying out a blueprint for the future-this is me, this is what I can do and how I can do it. She's manufactured, but it detracts not a jot from her plangent allure. It was probably a coincidence, but the choice of pop ingenue Lana Del Rey as the show's musical accompaniment was perfect. That's because you're throwing a spotlight on the intangibles of creativity. There is a school of thought which says that mystery preserves the magic, but Gaytten understands, as did Galliano, that if you reveal the machinery, you can enhance the mystery. The same effect was realized a little more fulsomely with a galleon of a dress in Dior gray, its panniers exaggerating the billows of tulle. The mood carried all the way through to evening, where a one-shouldered black gown featured tone-on-tone embroidery and a random splatter of sequins suggesting a naïve effort to add glitz. On yet another, sequins traced a grid, like a pattern-maker's directives. On another, ostrich had been dissected into paillettes of skin, like a body map. On one dress, black crocodile scales were randomly picked out in patent. The black floral designs that were picked out on a flaring white skirt were like an initial guide for a master embroiderer who would fill in the colors later. Sheer layers exposed the underlying construction of garments. He x-rayed the craftsmanship of the Dior ateliers, and the riveting result was a show that dared to inject an unfinished quality into the most polished fashion arena of them all. Anyway, that's the way it played out in Gaytten's second couture collection for the house. Standing beside him at Christian Dior for 16 years, it was inevitable that Bill Gaytten would come to share the same preoccupation. John Galliano was always mesmerized by the inner workings of haute couture. ![]()
