We never know what to expect when it comes to haute couture because it is nothing like your average fashion week! Some designers like to keep it simple and classic whilst others like to think outside of the box and go all out for the most luxurious week in fashion.
Chanel
My favourite show by far was Chanel, Karl Largafeld is the king of the fashion industry and is so incredibly creative in the way that he expresses his ideas through fashion, he is able to still keep the classic Chanel look but then adds a twist in order to fit the trends of the season, which is amazing. And his muse and inspiration Lily Depp looked lost her haute couture virginity as she closed the show alongside the man himself. In my opinion the day Mr Largafeld steps down will be a very sad day for fashion. I don’t think anyone will ever be able to live up to him, but I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
Valentino
Another favourite of mine was the Valentino show. The clothes were so made for the year of 2017; they were almost heavenly in a way with the pallets of colours used and the way that the pieces flowed across the runway. The hints of bold colours involved in the show definitely stood out and made such a bold first impression!
Elie Saab
In addition to this, the Elie Saab show was breathtaking, the Ellie Saab show gets better and better every year! I loved every single piece in the collection, every attention detail was done to absolute perfection! And I think if we learnt anything from Elie Saab it is that naked dresses are here to stay and are surely not going out of style any time soon.
Zuhair Murad
This year we saw a lot of bold colours presented on the zuhair murad runway and the reveal of the huge wedding dress just made the show for me, it was so unexpected yet expected at the same time. I couldn’t take my eyes off of the entire show, I was completely Mesmerised.
Jean Paul Gaultier
The jean Paul Gaultier show was nothing if not extremely tailored for the modern day woman. The bold patterns and colours made such a huge statement on the runway and I love jean Paul for doing this, I truly feel like he captured the idea of what it means to be a woman in a society like today’s through his clothes.
