Haute Couture Week Excitement

..... well for me anyway

christian-lacroix-paris-couture-week






COUTURE FASHION WEEK started this weekend – This is the most exciting fashion week of them all




The right to call your garments couturier is, granted by the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne, after a designer has fulfilled certain strict criteria such as maintaining at least one atelier (workshop) in Paris.



Armani Couture




Furthermore, a couturier must show at least twice a year in Paris. 



I look forward to couture weeks the most, a no holds-bar indulgent creation feast, a week of the most lavish, intricate detailed pieces, workmanship, and originality of a unique design Unfortunately Givenchy is not on the schedule anymore (please come back Riccardo!)  



One of the things I love most about this week is creativity comes first, commercialism is nowhere to be seen

The other names I’m excited to see today are the schedule's younger names, Giambattista Valli, Alexis Mabille - sone of the who have built a solid customer base.

Tuesday brings us Giorgio Armani Privé and Chanel 



Wednesday begins the legend that is , Jean Paul Gaultier and Valentino, 

these two new creative directors have managed to bring a fresh femininity to the brand without moving to far from the romanticism of the brand core design values  

And finally on Friday the two chraming darlings Zuhair Murad, and Ralph and Russo
