Paris Haute
Couture changed it all in the 19th Century, with the brilliant Charles
Frederick Worth who helped the métier become appreciated for its infinite
value… Today it still does change everything; as it moves and charms spectators
through the power of its spectacular craftsmanship, exquisiteness and genius
results. All the extravaganza of the hand-made high-fashion brought every year
in the January and July runway shows, inevitable becomes a superb source of
inspiration for those who adore fashion, great style, good taste and everything
that comes with it all.
Here
some gorgeous inspirations to embrace…
MIX OF
TEXTURES
An artistic mélange of fabrics and materials such as lace, tulle,
silks, wool, leather, taffeta, jacquards, paillettes, 3D motifs… Skillfully
mixed, resulted in extraordinary TEXTURE, a key protagonist of the Parisian
couture collections. (Images: Giambattista Valli, Yanina Couture, Stephane Rolland, Jean Paul Gaultier)
EXTRAVAGANT
VOLUME
XL touches, structure, ruffles,
tiers, asymmetry, construction & deconstruction were just a few of the laboriously
techniques used to accomplish fantastic EXTRAVAGANT VOLUME. (Images: Zuhair Murad, Viktor & Rolf, Ralph & Russo, Alexis Mabille)
PRINCESSES
FROM ANOTHER GALAXY
Star Wars has always touched our hearts; and so has
magnificently touched fashion over and over. The Spring-Summer Couture
collections became a testimony of this obsession we cannot and do not want to
let go. PRINCESSES FROM ANOTHER GALAXY, most of them caped, seemed to flow
through most of the runways. Simple spectacular! (Images: Chanel, Maison Martin Margiela, Rami Al Ali, Valentino)
ALL-WHITE
IT IS
ALL-WHITE gorgeous dresses, suits
and magnificent ensembles had their glorious moments in the Parisian shows.
From classy to daring, modern designs, ALL-WHITE IT IS! (Images: Guo Pei, George Chakra, Dior, Alexis Mabille)
THEATRICAL
AMBIANCE
Beautiful designs that recalled
our most beloved performing arts such as the theater, the opera, ballets… Had
their big moment; reminding us that creativity and lots of drama, of course;
cannot be left aside when it comes to spectacular fashion and style. (Images: Frank Sorbier, Ulyana Sergeenko, Schiaparelli, Yanina Couture)
GIPSY ROYALTY
Delicate boho airs, loose silhouettes,
gorgeous draping and dreamy detailing invited the observers to become part of a
one-of-a-kind GIPSY ROYALTY in French territory. Superb beading, embellishments
and organic motifs were among the most breathtaking gifts for the eyes! (Images: Valentino, Giambattista Valli, Elie Saab, Chanel)
LIFE IS A RUNWAY!
