It's back and it's better than ever!

Remember the infamous Björk's swan dress that she wore to the Oscars in 2001? We don't think anyone who's seen it can ever forget the - er - creative design by Marjan Pejoski. It has constantly made the top spots of "awards season worst-dressed lists" over the years and has had so many mock copies even from famous stars like Ellen DeGeneres and Kevin James.

Now it seems that its fashion powerhouse Valentino's turn to make it something less cringe-worthy. For the Paris Fashion Week's spring 2014 haute couture show, Valentino received standing ovations and endless praises for revealing a swan dress that looked elegant and wearable. The dress was made out of tulle and hand-sewn feathers, with the swan being somewhat an accent only to the dress. When you see it, you can instantly imagine the Swan Lake ballerinas.

The response from critics was overwhelmingly positive:

Fashionologie: "Luckily for Valentino creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and [Pierpaolo Piccioli, this version was far more tasteful."
Harper's Bazaar: "Valentino takes our breath away with another stunning couture collection."
Total Beauty: "Yes, yes, yes! The Björk swan dress is back, as remade by Valentino! We love!"

We hope another Hollywood star would wear this other swan dress version.
