She just showed her second collection for the house of Dior at Paris Fashion Week. This time, it was haute couture that pretty much transported the audience (and us watching from afar) to a magical world where there is only whimsy, hope and beauty.

A world where bigotry and hate doesn't exist.

It did, for only a moment, remind us that such a world can and will exist, despite the villains that try to ruin it for us.

Fairy princess gowns dotted the runway featuring silk appliqué and lots of tulle. The tiara-like headdresses and masks featured feathers and showed inspiration taken from nature and surrealism.

The Guardian notes that "there was dramatic eveningwear in bold, architectural shapes which seemed a logical extension of how the new Dior brand might look on the red carpet."

Oh, we can't wait to see who will be wearing Dior on the soon-to-be Oscars red carpet! Surely brand ambassador Jennifer Lawrence and Marion Cotillard will. 

Here are some images of the stunning street style spotted before the show and the haute couture ramp itself featuring dream-like creations by this very talented designer:
