"when you're a fashion photographer, you must inspire a dream, with dior haute couture, the dream is already there." - patrick demarchelier

dior couture by patrick demarchelier, published by rizzoli, is a retrospective of the dior haute couture collections from the first show in 1947 designed by mr. dior himself through his successors, yves saint laurent, marc bohan & john galliano.  (how much to you miss galliano??)  looks divinely gorgeous.
