I love fresh-cut flowers!  I could not resist a visit to the L.A Flower Market this morning.  Being amongst the huge array of amazing colours and textures is so inspiring.  There’s something so indulgent about fresh-cut flowers.  The tightly packed beautiful display of every flower imaginable got me thinking about the Dior Autumn/ Winter couture show.

Raf Simons’ debut as the Creative Director of Dior was nothing short of spectacular, using one million blooms to cover the walls of five grand rooms of a Parisian mansion.  The floral masterpiece was the work of top fashion florist, Mark Colles.  It took a reported forty people, fifty two hours working through the night to complete in time while the flowers were at the peek of perfection.  The smell must have been amazing!

I wonder what happened to them all after the show!
