She wears this coat to watch the Spring/Summer 2000 'Clochard' collection ''Then Mouna rushes home to change for Dior, where, at least to begin with, she is the show. In last season's red satin trench lined in red sequins she stretches herself out on the runway, head thrown back, for photos. Back in her seat, she watches models parade down the catwalk in deconstructed pieces inspired by tramps, old sanatoriums and Egon Schiele; newspaper-pieced trousers swallowing the legs; hobo Shetland sweaters slashed to expose the torso; bias-cut straitjackets circling the body in laces. "Genius!" she cries, flushed and glowing. "Brilliant! I'll buy it! If there weren't people like Galliano, we'd all be wearing the same old collection! Most people won't understand, but what an explosion of expression!" Please note there are export restrictions on this lot Provenance : The Mouna Ayoub Collection Images Droits Réservés
