Dior Cell Phones

Designers have moved their way into the city girls favorite accessory....the cell phone. Every girl has one and why not make it a little more fashionable if your going to carry it everywhere? Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, Gucci, and Chanel have created cell phones for the urban fashionista, and now added to the list is Christian Dior. The French designer has created cell phones with the traditional Dior look, complete with camera, touch screen, and an extender meant to clip onto your Dior handbag!



Personally, I like my cell phone to be just a cell phone.

Christian Dior Haute Couture Collection - Paris Fashion Week 2008

Designer, John Galliano for Christian Dior walked his designs down the runway during Paris Fashion Week. The gowns were large, elaborate, voluminous masterpieces with gold embroidery, matched with over sized earrings and extravagant hats.



The inspiration for Galliano's Dior collection, was John Singer Sargent's controversial painting of Madame X. Galliano also used elements of Gustave Klimt, Edward Munch, and Odilon Redon in the look of his gowns. Many of the dresses have Geisha qualities seen in the hats and wrap style.

Madame X, The Kiss



Edward Munch, Odilon Redon
The Scream, Ophelia

The shoes were cut out at the arch which looked fabulous, but I'm sure made walking difficult.



Celebrities who had front row seats at the Christian Dior show were Dita Von Teese, and Diane Kruger.
