I was just poking around Style.com when I rediscovered the Christian Dior Fall 2008 collection. I know, I know, what was I doing that I missed it the first time and the answer is: I didn't. I just didn't appreciate the sugary pastels, chiffon and silk like Royal Icing. John Galliano, chief designer for Dior, has created utterly delicious creations that just glisten with delicate beauty.

Too, the sculptural charcoal dress with its glitz, glam and peacock spots - I know it doesn't fit the decadent pastel motif, but how could I possibly ignore it?
