The all-monochrome couture collection was presented at the brandandrsquo;s first ever Parisian boutique at 30 Avenue Montaigne.andnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p pstrongThe Collection/strong/p pandnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p pstrongbr //strong/p pstrong/strong/p p style="text-align: center;"strong/strong/p pandnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p pBlack and white play a significant role in Diorandrsquo;s history, as Christian Dior andnbsp;adored the two colours for their simplicity, purity and sartorial versatility. Embroidered motifs and embellished patterns adorned the apple-cut silhouette coats. A blend of tulle and silk, best known as crandecirc;pe de Chine, was used to stitch the Victorian-style mid-length skirts. Alongside the Bar suit, the fall winter 16 couture collection also witnessed drop shoulder jackets, pleated skirts, embellished organza middies, off-shoulder ruffled gowns, pant suits and gowns with plunging necklines.andnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p pstrongThe Venue/strong/p pThis is the second time the House of Dior hosted its couture show at the 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris. The venue, which is actually Diorandrsquo;s first ever couture store in Paris, was the headquarters of the brand back in 1946. The boutique features crystal chandeliers suspended from the neoclassical style ceiling. From gilded mirrors to lacquered furniture, the marble-floor boutique demonstrates a warm colour palette in shades of beige, gold and white. A carpeted staircase connects the floors which acted as a ramp for the models this season.andnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p p style="text-align: center;"/p pandnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p pIn fact, the venue made its Hollywood debut in the Season 6 of emSex and the City/em (remember the time when emCarrie Bradshaw/em fell on the marble floors of the Dior boutique?).andnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p pstrongThe Front Row/strong/p pstrongbr //strong/p pstrong/strong/p p style="text-align: center;"strong/strong/p p style="text-align: center;"emCandeacute;line Dion,andnbsp;Li Bing Bing,andnbsp;Marion Cottilard (L-R)/em/p pandnbsp;/p pThe show was a celebrity-studded event with names like strongCandeacute;line Dion/strong, strongChiara Ferragni/strong, strongElena Perminova/strong, strongLi Bing Bing/strong, strongMarion Cottilard/strong, strongOlivia Palermo/strong, strongAmira Caser/strong and more gracing the front row.andnbsp;/p pandnbsp;/p pstrongMore On andgt;andgt; a href="http://www.luxpresso.com/style/fashion" target="_blank"Fashionandnbsp;/a/strong/p
