Dries Van Noton
With influence from English photographer, James Reeves and what is being referenced as a tribute to Cristobal Balenciaga, Dries Van Noten showcased a collection of subtle contradictions and conflicts. The structured silhouettes in palettes of black and white were infused and heightened with looks of fuchsia and water-coloured prints to create an artistic and historical masterpiece.
Balenciaga
The drama that resulted in the collapsing of the benches at the Balenciaga show, ironically worked in the fashion house’s favour, setting a scene in the Rue Cassette that drew direct connotations to the aesthetic of a church. Structured jackets adapted to the modern day silhouette were paired back with super-short tailored shorts and presented in rich luxurious hues. The collection pushed the limits, adapting the archives of Balenciaga in a truly creative way.
Gareth Pugh
Dynamic, fearless, sci-fi predators stormed their way down the runway at Gareth Pugh, showcasing futuristic designs of predominantly black and white. With visual and sound elements only heightening the effect and impact of the dramatic show, the collection closed with a masked hybrid assuming her position of power.
Balmain
It was Olivier Rousteing’s big moment and at only 25 years of age, the designer faired pretty well, putting a slightly new spin on the tight silhouettes and short hemlines we’ve come to expect from Balmain. Elaborate embroidery complemented the soft wallpaper-floral motif while Rousteing set the bar for the future development of the Balmain look.
Yet to come are the innovative creations of Christian Dior, Chanel, YSL, Alexander McQueen and so many more… I am literally holding my breath, Paris you do it to me every time!
