Oh wowzers!! Ok, beauty die-hards need their diaries at the ready to get hold of one of these! The Tailleur Bar Limited Edition Palette, £65, goes on sale in Selfridges, London, on 2nd August (although the eagle-eyed will have spotted it launched in similar limited numbers in France earlier in the year). It comes presented in a beautiful Dior white box, and each one is numbered and has detailed instructions on how to apply the shadows - inspired by Christian Dior's favourite colours. The design is taken from an original illustration (seen above) by Rene Gruau and celebrates the first Dior Couture Collection in 1947 and the Bar suit. The Palette comes with a limited edition Serum de Rouge to compliment the palette eye shades, and there are instructions on how to use the colours for beautiful eyes. Right, there will only be 150 of these palettes on sale - so if you are a collector you'll need to be hot on it. Good luck!
NB: You'll see from my own picture the colours aren't as vivid in reality - much more muted in wearable mauve/grey with accents.

Good golly gosh! This is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. After looking at this I think I'm going to need a lie down :)
Will you be getting one?

Oh my word, they are gorgeous!
is this a UK exclusive?? I'm in the US!
You are the worst enabler I know! I now have two Tom Ford lipsticks, you know!!
Hi Miss W - I am very lucky I know, but I have one already. :-)
Tzu-Chein - I'm sorry but I don't know - I know they launched in France already but don't know about elsewhere. x
That has to be the most amazing palette I have ever laid my eyes on!
Wowee - too pretty to use, but LOVE it! I'd just end up keeping it in a drawer and looking at it every now and again!
It's stunning but I don't think I'd ever want to use it!
It looks far too pretty to be used!
It's not as pretty as the other limited edition one (Love Dior) was. I won't be queueing up for it. :)
This is just beautiful! I have to agree with tackyblueeyeshadow's comment though - I'd almost be loathe to actually use it!
Beautiful!
It will be too beautiful to use. Scared the picture is spoilt.
I just love it I'm not sure I could bring myself to spoil it though.?
The 1947 iconic photo is wonderful, I've made a hat just like it.!
