Paris Haute Couture autumn/winter 2012: 10 dresses to die for

As the shows come to a close, see which dazzling creations took our breath away this time around.

 ARMANI PRIVÉ
At Armani Privé, the ultimate cocktail dress came courtesy of a wholly sequinned gown slit to the navel, punctuated with red, blue and green accents.
 GIVENCHY BY RICCARDO TISCI
Harking back to Old Hollywood glamour, Riccardo Tisci's oyster-hued gown for Givenchy features a fur bodice to keep its wealthy wearer positively toasty.
 VALENTINO
With a matching cloak, this Valentino gown features a beautiful print of a bird on a branch, coloured in rich shades of emerald, pink and mustard.
 ELIE SAAB
Lebanese couturier Elie Saab experimented with sheer fabrics to display an intricate overlay of beadwork - in order to preserve the wearer's modesty of course.
 GIAMBATTISTA VALLI
In the palest shade of pastel pink, Giambattista Valli's flowing silk dress captured the hearts of our inner princess
 CHANEL
This sugary-sweet Chanel frock, with its tiers of iridescent paillettes and beading, will appeal to the ultimate girlie-girl.
 CHANEL
Coming to a red carpet near you soon: we can't wait to see which star rocks this oh-so-fun Chanel pom-pom gown.
 DIOR
Raf Simons' streamlined appliquéd patchwork gowns at Dior firmly took the forth and pompous out of couture.
 DIOR
Exquisitely minimalist, and with a respective nod to the aesthetic of the late Christian Dior, new Dior creative director Raf Simons triumphed with this beautiful pink gown.
 GIAMBATTISTA VALLI
Giambattista Valli's romantic ruffled gown will ensure its wearer makes the most unforgettable of entrances.
