Pierre Cardin's famous Palais Bulles was fashion central yesterday with celebrities, journalists, and Cardin himself gathered for Raf Simons' Dior Resort 2016 show. Le Palais Bulles is just that—a palace of terra-cotta bubbles set into a cliffside halfway between Cannes and Monaco. It's utopian and kind of goofy in its infantile design ."Playful, sweet…childish, almost," said Raf Simons, as he reflected on a venue he fell in love with five years ago, when he was first brought here. "The house is big but intimate, and it doesn't behave like an authority," he continued. "And Dior can do that sometimes, especially if you look at it from an architectural point of view." But coming to the clothes – the warm, chilled-out shade of terra-cotta was mostly everywhere, on the silk mini-skirts to checked blouses. My total favourite was this dress above – made out of mesh and knitwear, it seems to be light, soft and fleecy. And the shoes which were inspired by Marie Antoinette are great, too. That was a lovely collection, Raf.
