It is that time of the year when the Haute Couture Fashion Week in Paris starts! If you have been a regular visitor here on my blog you probably know that I heart and adore Haute Couture. It is the reason why I have started to write this blog. To me, the Haute Couture is like the poetry to wear, fairytale alike dresses and textures at which only a glimpse makes me smile! If I consider a fashion the true escapism then the Haute Couture is a purely visual joy and phantasy.
But let's go back at the Haute Couture Fashion Week. The first collection that has taken the place was the on by the Parisian house of fashion, the Schiaparelli one. With the long tradition and history of high fashion (the first name of the house was Elsa Schiaparelli which was also famous for being in the serious animosity with Gabrielle Chanel. I know that this data is maybe overrated but it is here just to help you to have the vision of how long this fashion house has the tradition of high and glamorous design in the niche of Couture).
This collection was the modern interpretation of the typical Schiaparelli design in Couture sense. The ethereal and flowy textures of the dresses, the witty and playful prints with the flora and fauna features. The most amazing was in this sense the mocha black gown with the featured butterfly appliques in deep gold. Talking about all-black ensembles, the one which was standing out was the short jacket alike dress with the texturized surface and fringes overload on the ends.
The almost sheer texture was the leading point of the material and fabric sense. Schiaparelli has that highlight or rather the trademark aesthetic in the shape of airy and fluid textures and silhouettes but with the sculpted and stiff aura. The tendency towards the more accentuated silhouette was toned down with the choice of easy and light materials what has given the whole collection the dreamy and poetic accents.
With the heterogenic approach in the case of textures and materials, from the romantic lace and sheer tulle, this collection has captioned the ultimate glamour but with wearable accents. That fact does not make this collection less beautiful, oh no. The drama is lately all gone from the Haute Couture introducing the more wearable options but still very glamorous and chic worthy. This collection is the perfect break down of the direction in which the current Couture goes. And we simply love it!
What are your thoughts about this collection? Are you consider yourself to be the Haute Couture fan? And which collections do you looking for to see at this year´s Spring/Summer 2018 Haute Couture Week?
Thank you for the attention!
