Ooooh yes, it's couture season and we've got some new dress INSPIRATION (unless you are lucky enough to be able to buy and expensive couture gown, or even luckier, if you have someplace to wear it!). 

Let's start with Valentino! Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli are geniouses. All classic prettiness with bows and  kitten heels. We are talking about Valentino and, of course, the inspiration must be something or someone admirable, something that couldn't have possibly  ocurred to any of us, poor uncultured people. Overall, something I will have to google later ...And the inspiration is... Wait, what? Twilight? Style.com called it "haute couture for the Twilight generation", "pitch to a much younger customer". Well, a pretty bow-y dress is something that any person from MY generation can pull off, so for that I'm thankful. On the other hand, if the fans were aiming for Bella's style, the shouldn't go as far as Paris, even the man section of the local GAP store will do. But if we were speaking about Alice... Well, that's a different story ;) (Oh, I love Alice!)

I adooore Alexis Mabille, but this show... mmmm... not so much. Although, I can't deny it had

some lovely separates, indeed, but it didn't seem like haute couture at all:
