Christian Lacroix Couture Spring 2009

Lacroix titled his show “The Designs of her Nature,” and in his program notes listed such moods as mischievous, elated and poised. Certainly Lacroix has neither Dior- nor Chanel-scale resources behind him, but his tempered approach seemed rooted in something apart from, or in addition to, the economy. It made for a quizzical collection. Lacroix showed some beautiful work - a deftly draped vermilion chiffon goddess gown; flamboyant bohemian layerings of painted gazar and chiffon - he doesn’t know how to make a bad dress. I LOVE the collection! View some of the pieces below, with Chanel Iman working the runway as well.
