Christian Dior opened Paris Fashion Week Haute Couture

Christian Dior opened Paris Fashion Week Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2011 today and it was filled with breathtaking vintage silhouettes, cheery warm weather colors, ladylike gloves and a splash of red. The one most noticeable absence from the haute couture runway was that of handbags. When the few women throughout the globe who are lucky enough to purchase Haute Couture from Christian Dior, actually wear the art from the Paris Fashion Week catwalk, the lucky lady will need a handbag.

Christian Dior sent the spring and summer 2011 handbag collection down the Paris Fashion Week runway during the ready-to-wear shows last fall. Although many of the Haute Couture looks are formal and call for a petite crystal or satin clutch, the more vintage and semi-formal ensembles can easily incorporate the Lady Dior handbag.

The Lady Dior handbag is a classic staple in the Christian Dior handbag collection and although the colors vary from season to season, the silhouette remains the same. For spring 2011, the Lady Dior handbag is being shown in classic black and white; which would be the colors that work best with the Haute Couture looks. In addition to the classic colors, the Lady Dior is being shown in candy pink, purple, royal blue, chocolate brown, bright coral and navy. The Lady Dior is shown in soft leather, tweed and patent.

The Lady Dior handbag is available in small, medium and large sizes. The small sizes would work best with the less formal Haute Couture looks on the Dior runway.
