many different flavours and the spice is strong

 it was the year 2001....The start of a new mellenium, everyone had begun to come down from their y2k induced panic,  brittney spears was sane, christina aguilara, lil kim, mia and pink had a hit single

children played on their razor scooters,  tom ford was still creative director of gucci and john galliano had just presented the spring 2001 couture one of john gallianos best collections in my mind, it was inspired by wonder woman , this collection reads kind of like a story...
It go's from repressed post war bookish women to suburban house wives to the rocker white snake groupie girls represented as being wonder woman and then finally too the liberated amazonian women, this represents wonderwoman returning to her home paradise island where only woman were allowed....

                 
bookish women^
before I found out John Gallianos inspiration for the collection I initially thought they were supposed to be like naughty school teachers or something, cuz of the scissors , pencils and stuff in there hair...they kind of look like femme fatales in a way, like there about to whip the scissors in there hair at you and kill you with it..
suburban house wives ^
ok you can tell that john galliano had fun witht his collection, this baby doll dresses were exactly that, they look like the ones that you would get with a toy doll, only giant and couture.......................


bamm heres wonder woman, liberated, sexed up and possibly returning back from a white snake concert.
and finally wonder woman returns to her homeland,  full of only women, beautiful silky and sheer dresses, furs and moccasins....
