All In The Details....Part III: Christian Lacroix



Well if there was ever a doubt in your mind that the Couture Shows would be less than a stellar amusement, I do believe that Christian Lacroix could prove a doubter wrong. Ever the master of layers and excess, this SP 09 collection continues the trends through multiple layers of transparent fabrics. The colors tend to look a little bit like a circus gone wrong on some of the looks, but I really dig the solid gowns. The light colored patterned tights are a subtle but significant addition to the looks. Of course my favorite idea to take away from this collection is the layering of multiple outrageous necklaces and giant earrings. This is a trend we can all follow! All in all, this collection was fun to look and wildly entertaining as all couture shows should be. Enjoy!
