CHRISTIAN DIOR Couture Goes Goth

Vogue reports on CHRISTIAN DIOR's Spring/Summer 2006 Collection.

The red lights rolled and the glass runway winked as the lights dimmed and tension mounted. Eerie eyes piercing out from under a luscious red satin high-collared cape, bound at the back. High ruffles, degrade details and leather pants bound so tight that the boots fair bled into the legs as the corsets pulled still tighter and tighter as this libertine's insatiable lust was for luxury. Bustles were slashed and corsetry burst through petticoats as a revolution of 'Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité' assaulted your eye and seized you by the throat.
