The biggest moment of haute couture this year has been a real call for spring and a demonstration that taking risks is what’s on brand. In Paris, the city characteristic for love and fashion, creative minds behind each show did not hold back and took an extravagant declaration of love up for a challenge.
What’s big on the runway
Paris asks for boldness and personality. The pieces that dominated the catwalk intertwined a classic and eccentric contemporary style with details made to stand out.
Volume and Structure
Homage was paid to the female body with the common element that several designers opted for. It seemed that the bigger, the more fabulous and luxurious. Brands such as Schiaparelli and Jean Paul Gaultier focused on the female body to bring their creations to life and the ball gown was the goal to achieve, but in the most unconventional way possible to bring sexy back.
Ruffles and Feathers
The immersive fantasy world created using elements such as feathers and ruffles makes it impossible to take our eyes off each model that passes by. To keep the romance in the city of love, the harmonious and delicate looks invade our eyes accompanied by the extravagant drama with details that add the softness and give us the “wow factor”.
This season's highlights collections
Try to take your eyes off the models at the Schiaparelli show, I bet you can't. It stood out at this Spring Fashion Week and was created by the brand's creative director Daniel Roseberry. With an elegant and irreverent collection, with striking silhouettes as a trademark, this year she reinvented herself with a dress that intended to reflect the look of the corset bustier, for an extravagance on the hips, betting on volume. With the attention to detail to which we have become accustomed, we are sure that each garment produced is a piece of art.
Where Dior's signature classic beauty meets an out-of-the-box bet, the French brand's show captures the eye in the positive. Embroidery, lace, discreet transparencies and a lot of volume, she presented herself with neutral colors and maintained her angelic identity, combining dresses with eccentric structures with a soft and floral side. It perpetuated the attention in the pieces by doing the models' hair all the same way and maintaining the shoe style like a gothic ballerina.
Celebrity Highlight
Jennie: Blue and Angelic
At Chanel's invitation, the singer Jennie, best known for being one of the members of the K-Pop band, BlackPink, stood out among the invited celebrities, for combining the casual with the out of the ordinary, and bringing a fashion moment. Blue and black and nothing else, keeping the colors simple, the attention goes to the baby blue ruffled cape, cropped at the front and long at the back, which keeps the singer's soft and sweet look, still bringing some movement. At the bottom, to keep it comfortable and cool, baggy black pants and a chaine around the waist for a feminine touch.
