Dior RTW F/W 2017

I really loved this collection. The taffeta and deep navy blue speaks to me.

This collection was gorgeous, I actually like it more than the last RTW one!

Me too. There is a departure from the "Maria-made Valentino" aesthetic that was present in the first collection. I also saw references to the work of Raf Simons and Galliano, which is good because those are all important years in the history of the House of Dior. After all, Galliano spent more years at Dior than Monsieur Dior himself.

It was such a solid collection. Much stronger than her first. But that's understandable. The training wheels are definitely coming off sooner.

Matia claims that her team didn't have a lot of time to design the first collection (only 5 weeks or something like that because people in the atelier were on holiday). This collection shows a lot more thought.

One of the new monogram bags with the Christian Dior plaque is really nice. Looks really sturdy and easy-to-use.

I quite like this collection, so moody and dramatic. Also it helps that Blue is my favourite colour! But I love the tailoring, the jackets are divine, and there is a perfect mix of timeless and young designs

I love that Promenade!! I think the Promenade will be my next Dior bag for sure, maybe not that specific one but one for sure!

Loving the throwback to the logo in this collection and the romantic vibe with dark blue. Very impressed.

Really don't like the bags, but the RTW is to die for! I think this collection's aesthetic pays better homage to Dior's history and look than the last collection. It seems that Maria is finding her footing!
