Snow White, Red Riding Hood and Sleeping Beauty are just some of the Fairytale characters which come to mind when I see this collection.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This line in bursting with elegance and innocence with gorgeous soft colours and eye catching design features. There is no shortage of delicate lace collars and embroidered bodices which show that fairy tale dresses aren’t just for young girls. They are for all ages.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/50514552408</link><guid>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/50514552408</guid><pubDate>Wed, 15 May 2013 15:53:49 -0400</pubDate><category>fashion</category><category>valentino</category><category>fairytale</category></item><item><title>opaqueglitter:

&lt;p&gt;Complete contrast to my precious post… Showing the use of lace with black makes the advert striking and eye catching. The black dress combined with the models proximity reflects an image of evil, but the soft lace and full skirt softens the look.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/50512150073</link><guid>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/50512150073</guid><pubDate>Wed, 15 May 2013 15:18:04 -0400</pubDate><category>black</category><category>white</category><category>lace</category><category>dark</category><category>mysterious</category><category>monochrome</category><category>evil</category></item><item><title>purebeachboho:

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The inspiration here is highly personal – the designer’s own heritage – which goes at least some way towards explaining the exquisite hand-craftsmanship that goes into each piece as well, of course, as bird head-dresses and McQueen tartan. The collection is luxurious and romantic but melancholic and even austere at the same time. The silhouette – all nipped waists, bustles and exaggerated hip lines – is designed to exaggerate a woman’s form and each piece is unique, a one-off couture creation with emotional content intended to be handed down from generation to generation like the most precious of heirlooms.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description><link>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/50360816186</link><guid>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/50360816186</guid><pubDate>Mon, 13 May 2013 15:56:40 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Love how the yellow makes the red dress so much more eye...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/b38c757f17375730056ec7c29dbad7ec/tumblr_mlvxyxC9lV1rrns0oo1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Love how the yellow makes the red dress so much more eye catching….

The dress made a huge impact. Lawrence was undoubtably the best dressed. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Lawrence chose to wear a delicate Chopard necklace down her back, enhancing the elegant dress even more. I’m eager to see how quickly this trend takes off over the course of the summer. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Silver Linings Playbook star, has also landed herself with ever girls dream job, as she has been casted for the new face of Dior. Lawrence was captured by Willy Vandepere for Dior’s 2013 spring/summer collection. Every photo I see I find utterly beautiful, with Jennifer’s strong, but elegant facial features, it’s hard to take your eyes off her! I think she has done an amazing job. Lawrence fits the bill perfectly for the timeless, much loved fashion house.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/49020379498</link><guid>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/49020379498</guid><pubDate>Sat, 27 Apr 2013 13:37:10 -0400</pubDate><category>HauteCouture dior timeless</category></item><item><title>katesmoss:

&lt;p&gt;This ivory pleated dress is pure elegance… The volume added by the pleats makes the garment eye catching, but the simple addition of the white tights makes the dress subtle. The combination of the pleated frill down the back of the dress, representing wings, and the image being taken in a dance studio, highlights the beauty and significance of swan lake.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/49017361510</link><guid>http://rachelstephenson.tumblr.com/post/49017361510</guid><pubDate>Sat, 27 Apr 2013 12:54:57 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>timeless-couture:
