Christian Dior Fall 2012 | Paris Fashion Week

Published March 2, 2012

Dior’s Classic Fall – Bill Gaytten looked towards the archives for inspiration with his second mainline collection for Dior’s fall 2012 presentation. With still no official word on a permanent creative director, the new season showcased demure forties and fifties inspired silhouettes in a muted color palette of taupe, black and burgundy. Despite the lack of Galliano opulence, Gaytten offered a lovely refinement for the autumn season with ballerina inspired shapes. Cinched jackets, pleated skirts and jewelry style embellishments dominate the Dior woman’s wardrobe for autumn.

  1. I appreciate what Gaytten’s trying to do, but this is just lacking Galliano’s magic… 🙁
    it will take a lot more time and effort at Dior to make us forget him

  2. It’s beautiful, but it’s not you own line Gaytten!! It’s Dior.

    Without the runway, good model, and all the light, I won’t believe if anyone say “It’s Dior” to me.

  3. seriously? is this dior??? i know i shudn’t compare galliano n gaytten but this does not even look like dior. 

  4. Itself, it is an appealing collection. But comparing to Galliano’s fullnes of shapes and elegancve, it is just…pale 🙁 You all must agree!
