Alexandre Vauthier's shockingly low-cut dress, Hedi Slimane and Saint Laurent's split... were the most talked about pieces of the year.

| Bella Hadid stepped onto the Cannes red carpet in an Alexandre Vauthier couture gown amid anxiety and fear, becoming a memorable mark in the fashion world last year. Fashion experts said that the model helped bring slit dresses to a new level, influencing the dressing style of fashion lovers. |

| The most talked-about events in the press were between two names: Hedi Slimane and Saint Laurent. After four years of working together, Hedi Slimane parted ways with Saint Laurent, much to the regret of fashion lovers in April 2016. The Fall Winter 2016 collection was the French designer's sweet farewell gift to the fashion house. It was also the first Haute Couture collection he designed for Saint Laurent, marking the return of this fashion line 13 years after designer Yves Saint Laurent retired. Under Hedi's talented mind and hands, Saint Laurent was imbued with the Rock n Roll of 1980s California and the rebellious, liberal grunge style, but without losing the inherent luxury of the fashion house. |

| Maria Grazia Chiuri's departure from Valentino was considered the most shocking split of 2016. But Valentino's loss was Dior's joy when she found a new head of design after Raf Simons' farewell last fall. Maria became the first female creative director in the 70-year history of Dior since its founding in 1946. |

| Diane von Furstenberg has announced that London-based designer Jonathan Saunders will take over as creative director of her label. The British designer was considered a natural fit for the job, with his first DVF collection being heavily influenced by the 1970s. |

The designer is responsible for the creative direction of all product lines including women's fashion, men's fashion and accessories... This is the information that fashion lovers have been talking about and waiting for the most since Raf Simons left Dior last October. |
