The Ballgown : Dior

Hi all,


With the upcoming V&A exhibition : Ballgowns, British glamour since 1950 (19th May 2012 - 6th January 2013) I have been reminded of the fairytale gowns that graced the pages of my favourite fairytale books that were read to me when I was little. Sure, in this social time ball gowns are a rarity (if only I was born in a different century!), but a girl can dream. I am going to look at a few different designers but lets start with the great Dior (most of these are Galliano's). Enjoy:
