It's all about the gloves...

PARIS, July 5, 2006 – Let us not be so prosaic as to ask exactly what Joan of Arc, Siouxsie Sioux, Botticelli, and the forties French film actress Arletty may have to do with one another—we’ve arrived in the parallel universe known as John Galliano’s Christian Dior... [ From Style.com ]

This show has been getting pretty thrashed by the media, honestly it is a little out there even for me (scary!) but some of the details really make it very worth it, and the black and red pieces are gorgeous. On the other hand, his stylist/MUA needs to be shot. Make the black stripe across the eyes and bad fake hair stop. Now. We all like the Bladerunner look, but it has been corrupted by every Hot Topic Mall Goth...I understand the tounge-in-cheekiness of it all, but last season's collection had an elegace and delicate perversion that this one does not. This one is unfortunately governed by the Lord of Tacky. But still, hot.
