Parigi fashion week is started and I must talk about the first fashion shows!
I want to start from Armani, Chanel, Dior...and some others!
The haute couture always fascinates me because it seems so unreachable and unattainable. One of those things that you can look but you're afraid to touch.
Something that you looks with admiration because it seems not to be equal to it.
Haute couture is creative, exaggerated, amazing...it's really a dream!
Armani delights us presenting a fabulous collection based on iridescences and metallic colors. He plays with lights and unusual shapes and he gives the final touch with orbital hats; and he doesn't forget to insert colors such as fuxia, green and red!
Karl Lagerfeld chooses to make classics Chanel pieces contemporary, matching leather pants to tweed tailleur. He inserts swarosky crystals and, as usual, he has a preference for black and white; shapes are linear and simple. Dior fashion show opened in red and ended in white but believe me, colors and shapes are once again to boss the show! Drapes, silk and tulle are the protagonists and the ways to make a chiaroscuro effect. Givenchy makes pin on white and long size dresses, combining them with garish hats. What about Maison Martin Margiela creations? They're incredibly unusual...a mix of bright colors and materials which make us joyful! (I'm really in love with the jumpsuit! Colors are scaled-down and the special decoration on the neck makes me crazy!). I've been impressed by the collection of Alexandre Vauthier because, dispite its semplicity and basic colors, I like the creations in the shapes (I'm a lover of shoulder squared), in high-waisted gold belts and in bright colors and materials of the long dresses.
We're just at the beginning, what do you think for now?
