A dress that has made fashion history, it has been and continues to be worn and adorned by celebrities the world over.

Founder of fashion blog ‘Chicmuse’ and social media specialist within the fashion industry, Denni Elias has built her reputation as an international stylist who travels the world, drawing inspiration for her work and personal style. For the Galaxy 10 launch collaboration, Elias has selected her favourite pieces from the collection and styled them in her characteristic, unique and chic way. She captures the true essence and the vibrant hues of the contemporary capsule collection resulting in a spectacular shoot, at newly opened boutique hotel Casa Fayette, Guadalajara, Mexico.

Located in Guadalajara, Mexico and built by Grupo Habita (part of Design Hotels worldwide), Casa Fayette’s interiors were created by Dimore Studio, an interior design team admired by the Chicmuse founder.

“I got to know Roland Mouret back when I started Chicmuse. The essence of the brand gives a sense of simplicity that helps anything look spectacular. Our team chose to shoot this editorial in Casa Fayette, as it seemed that it organically fitted the brand. The draping and adjustments of the Galaxy Collection, with its colour blocking, symmetry, and unexpected twists, felt intuitively right to shoot with the background and design at the new boutique hotel. For us, it also represents that both brand and hotel are boutique experiences: exclusive, and absolutely enjoyable for the eyes.” – Denni Elias (Chicmuse)

‘For over a decade, Roland Mouret has created the most coveted of women’s wear collections. The designer has defined the era of the iconic dress which have become known by a single name – Galaxy, Titanium, Moon – and have earned Mouret a reputation as magician, master of structure and silhouette and as a man with an intuitive understanding of the female form.’
