Paris Shows

A few of my other highlights...

Alexis Mabelle: This collection has a bit of an 'I Love Lucy' feel to it. I really like his use of tafetta and how he places loose translucent silks over the top of fitted dresses to create more defined silhouettes.



Dior: Galliano was definitely rummaging round in the Dior archives when he created this collection. The pieces are clearly influenced by the dresses Dior was making in the 50s. Love the Jessica Rabbit make up and hair on the models.



Chanel: I really wasn't a fan of most of this collection, thigh length tweed coats and sequin trousers really don't do it for me. However there was a couple of pieces that did catch my eye.

Coat, minus the trousers and flat pointy pumps.

Elie Saab

These dresses are the definition of fabulous. Beautifully constructed and designed, this collection has been my highlight of the Paris shows.

Flower over lay on chiffon. Love the almost transparent sleeves.
