YSL, Chanel round off Paris Fashion Week shows

Anthony Vaccarello, creative director of French fashion house Yves Saint Laurent, showed a runway lineup of evening-appropriate minidresses in bright colours and round, voluminous gowns on Tuesday, capping over a week of fashion shows in Paris, reported Reuters. Held near the Eiffel Tower after nightfall, the audience sat on dark leather stools and couches, surrounded by glowing pink walls with marbled, mineral patterns. The first model marched out on towering sling-back heels, her hands thrust deep into the pockets of a short dress in bright, marigold orange. The shoulders were broad and the sleeves were wide, while a tall collar rose to the model's jaw line. Similar silhouettes followed, in colours like fuchsia, teal or yellow. "Instead of speaking through ornament or padding, fabrics and precise construction shape the garments," the Kering-owned label wrote in notes about the winter collection. Partway through the show, the focus on volumes suddenly shifted to below a dropped waist, with a series of silky slip dresses that ballooned into hulking, rounded shapes that floated down the runway. There were also trim, transparent dresses in a lightweight silicone fabric, with leopard or floral prints. Model Bella Hadid paraded a bright blue dress in stretchy lace. Meanwhile earlier, trim, tweed tailored suits and flowing dresses adorned by decorative black bows showcased Chanel's fall-winter runway collection. Under the soaring glass-and-steel dome of the Grand Palais, models strode through a sparse set, built around an enormous black ribbon sculpture curling up into the air. Kicking off the show were suit jackets and mini-skirts or shorts in tweed, all in monochrome, some covered by dresses or skirts in sheer fabric with extra ruffles emphasising the hem. Black bows embellished the looks, whether tied under the neck, worn as hair attachments or fixed to brimmed hats, skirts or thick-heeled boots. Paris Fashion Week, which ended on Tuesday, featured shows from some of the world's biggest brands including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Dior and Hermes, as well as Stella McCartney and Victoria Beckham.
