Raf Simons shows how comfortable he is at the helm with this stunning and intricate [Christian Dior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diors-2024-collection) Spring 2014 Couture collection. The head designer of Dior stated that his inspiration for this collection was lightness and movement. He decided to achieve this with multiple holes and eyelets in the garments.

Everything in this Christian Dior Spring 2014 Couture show is just as light as the designer wanted. White fabrics with holes in them float down the catwalk and provide immense breath-ability. Although the makeup on the models was by no means natural looking or displaying the [no-makeup-makeup look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow), their pale faces did feel fresh. A light peach eye shadow and either neutral or red lipstick made for a calming spring look that didn’t distract from the clothing.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Breathable Fashion:** The concept of fashion items with multiple holes and eyelets in the garments to achieve breathability.
- **Lightness-inspired Collection:** The use of light fabrics with holes and eyelets to add movement and provide immense breathability to clothing items.
- **Non-distraction Fashion:** The existence of neutral makeup shades on models to create a calming spring look that does not distract from the clothing.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Fashion Design:** This trend opens up opportunities for fashion designers to create new clothing lines with breathability features that can be used in sports or hot weather.
- **Beauty Industry:** The opportunity for beauty brands to create makeup lines that complement clothing items without being too distracting from them.
