4 Things You Need to Know from the Dior Runway Show

The show materials reminded us that Christian Dior loved the color blue with a quote from the designer: "Among all the colors, navy blue is the only one which can ever compete with black." Blue, the booklet says, was the color du jour in 20th-century painting (think Picasso). So we saw blue everywhere: in the lighting, the suede seats, the music (yes, the blues), and, of course, the clothing. Every. Single. Look. Was. Blue—or had lots of blue in it.

Many of the looks featured deliciously large hoods—on dresses, sweaters, coats. Hoods so big you could fit a medium-sized lunch box inside of it.

You heard it here first: Throw out your beanies and get a leather beret. Channel the most French version of yourself and wear it with everything: from a black tie sparkly gown to double denim.

You know those chic dresses from Dior's spring collection that basically every celeb wore? Corset top, see-through bodice. Yeah, that shape and style is here to stay—this time in shades of, you guessed it: BLUE. And some princess sparkles.
