Charlize

Self assured and successful, without sacrificing one drop of sensuality, Charlize Theron is the incamation of Dior in the new J’adore opus.
She is goddess amongst legends: contemporary, blending harmony and character, she is one of the few stars today who can rekindle the golden age of Hollywood. Through this absolute feminity, she is woman, as celebrated by J’adore.

“No Dior: No Dietrich”
This tit for tat phrase that Marlene Dietrich snapped at the boss of Warner studios has become famous around the world. For when Marlene agreed in 1950 to star in Alfred Hitchcock’s Stage Freight, it was on the express condition that her wardrobe be made exclusively by Christian Dior, Whether on screen or off, Marlene was the most fervent star in Dior.

Fetish Falls

Excuse me, but when did wild sex come back in style? - Stanford Blatch

Whips and Flails and leather clad females is what comes to my mind when I look through several shows from Fall 2011.

Bondage Fashion!
These two words are the single trickiest two words in the fashion dictionary. Immediately my mind gets occupied by cheap PVC thigh high boots, corsetry made in china and plastic wigs from ebay! But think again.

You don’t necessarily see paddles and collars in Hakaan or reigns and shackles in Heider Ackerman, which you would see in a typical bondage armoury. It all depends on what you think ‘Bondage’ is??
Restraint. Not restraint in just a kinky way, but in a sense of authority, austerity and the elegance of refusal. Something you assume to be a comparatively dark desire which you are anxious not to judge or dare to ask.
Or it could be that moment when you think ‘Dare I? but what would people think?’
