Through The Looking Glass

Christian Dior Haute Couture, Spring 2009

The annual Costume Institute Gala will take place this Monday night in New York City with this year’s theme CHINA: THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS. This editorial in the May issue of VOGUE offers a first look at some gorgeous confections created throughout the years by fashion designers inspired by China. What I love is that many of my favorite people — Grace Coddington, Fei Fei Sun, Pat McGrath and Steven Meisel created these images in front of another ZR favorite, de Gournay wallpaper.
