Couture week for spring 2015 has come to an end, and we’re here to show you some of the best couture pieces from the collections. Some collections were futuristic, like the ones by Atelier Versace, some really theatrical, and in some cases over-the-top, like Valentino, Viktor & Rolf and Maison Martin Margiela, and some a bit disappointing like big house names such as Christian Dior and Chanel. My personal favorite ones were the absolute dreamy creations by Elie Saab, and Zuhair Murad. The creations of the latter surprised me, for being even dreamier than the ones from Elie Saab, who has been known for creating fairytale-like dresses over the years. Here are some of my picks, from all the collections. You can click on the links under the photos to be directed to the collections’ pages.
