For Christian Dior Autumn/Winter 2014 Collection show, there was a large contrast between the models and backdrop, drawing all attention the bold and bright colours used in the designs. The show consisted of a white floor and white backdrop with very bright overhead lighting. It was very plain, simple and understated so that all the focus was upon the collection.

In most of the looks there was the use of just 1 or do very bold and bright colours. No patterns or pictures were incorporated into any looks just block colours. There was also the use of one bright statement piece against a white or black monochrome outfit. There was the use of lots of coats and suits, very straight, formal and strict. Very simple and understated yet eyecatching. 

The hair was straight and slicked back behind the ears. Once again a very natural and understated look. drawing any attention away from the actual look of the model and focusing it onto the clothing and collection. The hair was very shiny and sheek and had a sort of wet look about the top of the head.

The makeup as well, following a trend, was extremely natural and understated with the only obvious sign of makeup being the use of one bold colour as a winged eyeshadow, this was either in a shimmer green, grey or glittery aqua. Other than this, the brows were brushed and naturally only slightly filled in to a natural colour, A very light  coverage foundation giving a dewy and natural finish to the skin with minor concealing under the eyes and on any blemishes. Some looks featured a slighlty darker lash line and use of minimal mascara whereas others did not.

Personally, Christian Diors Ready to Wear Collection is one of my favourite Autumn Winter 2014 collections. I love the simple yet bold style used in the looks and how the contrasting colours work against each other. I also love how understated yet eyecatching the whole show was. I really like how strict and straight the style was and quite formal, yet the colours incorporated some playful and fun moods. I also really like how simple the makeup and hair was but how well they worked together and how it complimented the whole show.
