The anticipation was palpable. Every year, the unveiling of Dior's Christmas collection is a highly anticipated event in the beauty world, a spectacle of shimmering packaging, luxurious textures, and innovative formulations. Needless to say, I was really excited to see what they created for 2016. Dior, a house synonymous with elegance and sophistication, promised "An ode to beauty in tune with the times, for modern women who seek…" and the 2016 Holiday collection, aptly titled "Splendor," certainly delivered on that promise. This exploration delves deep into the various facets of Dior's 2016 Christmas offering, from the runway inspiration of the Dior 2016 Fall/Winter collection to the individual components of the holiday makeup and accessories.
Dior 2016 Fall/Winter: Setting the Stage
To fully appreciate the Dior Weihnachtskollektion 2016, we must first consider the context of the broader Dior 2016 Fall/Winter collection. This season's runway show, showcasing both ready-to-wear and haute couture, set a distinct tone. The designs, often characterized by a blend of classic Dior silhouettes and modern, edgy details, provided a strong visual foundation for the holiday collection's aesthetic. The color palettes, often featuring deep jewel tones punctuated by flashes of metallics and shimmering accents, directly influenced the makeup and packaging choices. Examining *All of the Looks From the Christian Dior Fall 2016* runway show reveals a recurring motif of refined opulence, a sense of understated glamour that perfectly mirrored the spirit of the holiday collection. Similarly, *All the Looks From Dior Haute Couture Fall/Winter* further emphasized the luxurious fabrics and intricate detailing that served as inspiration for the limited-edition holiday packaging.
The rich textures and opulent fabrics seen on the runway – velvets, silks, and brocades – translated beautifully into the luxurious feel of the holiday makeup palettes and the exquisitely crafted gift sets. The deep burgundy, emerald green, and sapphire blue hues that dominated the fall/winter fashion show found their way into the eyeshadow palettes, lipsticks, and nail polishes, creating a cohesive and undeniably festive collection.
Dior Holiday Splendor 2016 Collection – Review:
The Dior Holiday 2016 Splendor Collection was a masterclass in festive extravagance. The packaging alone was enough to capture attention – each item was encased in richly embellished boxes, often featuring a deep, luxurious navy blue or a shimmering gold, reflecting the opulent aesthetic of the season. The collection encompassed a wide range of products, catering to every makeup need and preference.
* Dior Holiday 2016 Palettes & Sets: These were the heart of the collection. The palettes typically featured a curated selection of eyeshadows, blushes, and highlighters, often in complementary shades inspired by the fall/winter runway. The quality of the pigments was exceptional, delivering intense color payoff and blendability. The sets, often bundled together with coordinating lipsticks, lip glosses, and mascaras, provided a convenient and luxurious way to create a complete holiday look. Many sets included miniature versions of best-selling products, making them ideal for gifting or for trying out new favorites.
* Dior Holiday 2016: This overarching theme encompassed the entire range of products, linking them through a consistent aesthetic and color palette. The use of specific shades, such as deep reds, shimmering golds, and rich burgundies, created a sense of unity across the various products. The consistent high quality of the ingredients and the meticulous attention to detail further strengthened the collection's overall impact.
