Short and sheer was the theme of Christian Dior's spring collection at Paris Fashion Week earlier today.
Designer John Galliano teamed soft, floating skirts in vibrant colours and prints with solid upper-body elements such as tight fitting bodices, belts, and heavy jackets.
But it was the elaborate up-do's that almost stole the show, adding unnecessary height to women who already possess legs like flagpoles and necks like giraffes.
The highlight of the collection would have to be the silvery-grey evening gown with its billowing layers of chiffon (seen below), though why the make-up artists insisted on teaming such a beautiful dress with gothic makeup I will never know - surely a softer, more glamourous look would have been more appropriate?
There's really nothing left to say except that if these styles take off over the Australian summer, Aussie women everywhere will have to whip out their nicest knickers, and be super vigilant with the-hair-down-there...
