Dandy Lady New Look Christian Dior Fall 08
Make-up created by Tyen

Available August 11, 08

"Dandy Lady". The name of the new make-up collection by Dior brings to mind silhouettes such as Marlene Dietrich's. Women of the 30's, their dressing room overflowing with men's apparel, who did not care one whit for anybody's judgement and whose sense of elegance relied, as did that of dandy chiefs Brummell or Barbey d'Aurevilly, on a fiercely personal conception of beauty.

It's a collection for beautiful thugs, figures of the night, almost apaches. With its earthy tones and animal skin patterns, it could have adorned Doris Day's face in Calamity Jane (1953), the ambivalent portrait of an engaging, manly female adventurer, a proficient  tracker and a peerless shot, a men's woman who hides a Colt beneath her wedding gown and sings Secret Love to her best friend Katie. A true "dandy lady" of her time.
