MORE PARIS FASHION WEEK FW13 / MY EDIT

 

@Céline :  particularly liked the over-the-knees boots styled with oversized coats.

Clever translation of the intercrossed-sleeves conceptual detailing (Comme des inspired) onto everyday wearable, desirable pieces.

 

@Loewe: I know we've seen a lot of pencil skirts with a side slit on the runway ... but I think Loewe coined it the best!
Especially pairing it with a street-couture leather poncho of Saharienne inspo.

 

@Saint-Laurent: Here, thank you very much but i didn't like the motorcycling boots at all.
That said,  I quite like the idea of wearing a silky or lacey dress with a check shirt... but with a pair of heels or sneakers for me please.
Perhaps too few codes from YSL as we know the brand, but undeniably capturing a 90's new grunge attitude.

 

@StellaMccartney: I'm always longing for Stella's cashmere luxurious tracksuits, and here she didn't disappoint.
I didn't find the shoes exciting either...but could easily picture the look with Gianvitto Rossi's stilettos or let's say Nike sneakers.
I'm turning ballistic about the 2nd silhouette, feminine yet relaxed attitude. The blouse has something of YSL - such a Mr Lova Lova piece!

PRINT ON PRINT

I really like the contrast of the zebra and cow-print together on Carine Roitfeld who re-thinks the black&white combo out of the box. 

A new mix to explore.

Intéressant ce clash d'imprimés zèbre et peau de vache sur Carine Roitfeld qui sort le noir et blanc des sentier battus. 
Un nouveau mix à explorer.

DETAILS AT BALMAIN FW13

 

I can't resist a good metallic colour explosion - flamboyant yet controlled opulence.
Inspired by the work of Parisian couturier Paul Poiret and the 'Thousand and one nights' imagery.
There is also something of Yves Saint-Laurent in the 1980s and Loulou de la Falaise.
Very Catherine Baba "Darling j'adooore!"
-
Incroyable cette explosion de couleurs métalliques - opulence à la fois flamboyante et maîtrisée.
Inspirée du travail du couturier parisien Paul Poiret et de l'imagerie autour des Mille et une Nuits.
On retrouve aussi des influences d'Yves Saint-Laurent dans les années 1980 et Loulou de la Falaise.
Très Catherine Baba "Darling, j'adooore!"
