Titled “Hanging Gardens of Babylon,” David Dixon’s Spring 2010 show was filled with Middle-Eastern influences like the metal-fringed maxi skirt, the Valentino-esque one-shouldered gowns and the stacks of chunky silver bracelets (courtesy of jewellery designer Rita Tesolin).

FASHION’s final thought: Dixon’s dresses are recession proof.
