Mode iconique
Iconic looks and artistry in design were on spectacular display at the Paris couture shows this year…
Grace, futuristic fabrics and ambiance at ALAÏA; sumptuous draping, flawless silhouettes and ivory tones at Dior; metallic, elongated proportions at Balenciaga; gathered, clean and incredible forms at Shiaparelli, and glimmer, intricate Tudor-esq headwear and sublime footwear at Gaultier…
Top of our list? Maison ALAÏA. The girls, designs, pillbox hats, photography and music. A triumph for Pieter Mulier.
Turning our heads also, Jean-Paul Gaultier: a beautifully rich feast for the eyes. Quintessential Gautier greatness.
