Paris Fashion Week

Afgelopen week was het weer hot & happening in Parijs. Modeliefhebbers van over de hele wereld kwamen samen in Parijs om te kijken naar de mooiste creaties tijdens de Women’s Fashion Week. Deze week presenteren alle merken hun nieuwe collecties voor S/S 2015. Kijk ook zeker de show van Jean Paul Gaultier, het is namelijk de laatste keer dat hij een ready-to-wear collectie ontwerpt. De show is een groot spektakel zoals alleen Jean Paul Gaultier die kan bedenken. Go check it out!

Wij hebben onze favorite picks op een rijtje gezet!

Celine – The stride seemed to feel all the more defined today with legs clad in cropped, exaggerated flares with turn-ups. Not the kind that swish about by the ankles, these were rigorously crisp, sharp and structured, and they didn’t budge an inch. They were topped with a-line knitted tunics with circular cut outs. Springy, knitted tank dresses were also in the offering, they bounced with tiers of stringy tasseled fringe; another knitted number was woven from fuchsia and navy wool, and unraveled at the hem. Next, a series of bold, unmistakably Seventies florals were clashed and spliced together, layered over those flares or elsewhere fashioned into midi length dresses with wafting petal sleeves.

Jean Paul Gaultier – Bekijk de hele show!
Paris is filled with fashion moments. And tonight came one of the most poignant as Jean Paul Gaultier, enfant terrible, master of theatre and fun, creator of some of fashion’s most provocative and legendary designs, showed his ready-to-wear collection for the last time. It was a brilliant send-off, presented as a beauty pageant so that each of the categories of girls came to represent a chapter in his fashion life, the comments he’s made, the themes he’s explored, the people who have inspired him. We were being given a slice of all the girls he’d designed.

Kenzo – Kenzo’s Humberto Leon and Carol Lim are doing their bit to save the planet too. Today, they were reminding us that there is just one planet, no back-up, no plan B. “Protect what is precious” was their instruction. On the catwalk and there wasn’t necessarily an obvious sustainable conversation but there was an ongoing one with their penchant for skatewear – maxed out, in fact, when it came to proportions. Skater trousers came supremely baggy and palazzo style, shirts big too and shapes mostly enveloping – but in something of a surprisingly serene way. And that was down to the colour palette: pinks, mauve, icy blue, white and white. But while the collection started out in those skate roots, it soon escalated into something altogether more polished from this duo. Still youthful, still energetic but elegant suddenly became an adjective that hopped into their fashion vocabulary.
