Christian Dior spring-summer 2013 haute couture collection displayed the coming of spring beautifully.  This was the Creative Director Raf Simons second haute couture collection for Dior.  The models emerged walking up the steps from the floor below to be surrounded by mounds of  boxwood hedges and trees.  The collection was light and airy, with layers of tulle, fine fabrics, embroidery, beads and flowers in vivid and pastel hues.  “I wanted to do a very self-explanatory collection this season” said Simons. “I wanted it to literally be about the season; to be about the very idea of spring.”
