70’s

Christian Dior’s cabbie hat and striped top are perfect for disco dancing, while Givenchy’s 70’s ensemble is perfect for headlining a musical festival. Mira Mikati reminds us all what the 70’s were really about with a “busy skating” tee and bomber jacket.

Modestly Revealing

Paris played with opposites this season, especially when it came to modesty. Alessandra Rich turns lace into a typical Sunday dress, while Alexander McQueen used little feathers to cover up and reveal the skin. Elie Saab’s evening dress is perfect is high cut and has a long length, but still manages to show some skin, and Giambattista Valli uses a lot of fabric to show a lot of skin. John Galliano’s garment looks like it walked right out of the 40’s, except for the sheer.

Paris Fashion Week was all about one thing: Paris. Designers draped their models in Paris themed clothes, like Cacharel’s flag colored-cardigans. Christian Dior dressed a model in the stereotypical french ensemble, a striped top and beret, while Saint Laurent created a cardigan featuring the Eiffel tower. Thom Browne created a French-themed school girl outfit, while Moncler Gamme Rouge fashioned a star blouse and red, white, and blue skirt.
