Reviews
I was disappointed that so few images for each couture collection were presented. For example, the "Madame Butterfly '07" collection (arguably one of JG's best) was only represented by 11 dresses. I was hoping to see many more, even if it meant the photos were smaller. The photos are not the best quality, mainly because they were shot live. I wish Dior would produce a better, more comprehensive volume(s) of their couture with better photos -- who really cares that much about documenting the ready-to-wear! Museums do it with their artwork and produce catalogues of their exhibitions with professionally shot work, why can't one of the world's largest fashion houses do the same?
