Comment from SS 1996 to "Dior vs John"

Though i like John very much, i like to search the previous designer of Dior. Because i always think that John Galliano's style is not Christian Dior's style. Christain Dior's design is elegant and feminie, so the type of color is limited. At the past, women will not put much colors on them. But John Galliano's design is exaggerating like the collection of egypt. So his design is always colorful color.

In one lecture, our department associate head, Raymond said present dior is so different from past dior.

The silhouette of Christian Dior is amazing!!!

But the similiarity is that they create something different and innovative. You can see New Look from Dior and every haute couture from John.

Though they have different styles. John tried to keep some Dior's element, like basing on achromatic color scheme ( white, black and gray ) to add other color scheme. Based on the meaning of Dior, gold always appear in Dior's and John's collection. Flora print always appear in red flower with green leaf dior's outfit. I found out from the history book that some outfits had been reconstructed by the latter designer. We can see except the self personality of designer, the background of the brand is very important for the designer to create a collection.

In this ss1996 from Gianfranco Ferre, he adopted achromatic color scheme ( white, black and gray ). Flora print appeared in this collection again.

It may be boring with no breaking point. Dior changed the designer next year which the position was replaced by John Galliano.
