Let’s find out what's going on in Parisian salons, including Celine's premieres and controversies, the mix on the catwalks, escape and a space age towards a better future.
CELINE'S SPRING 2019 COLLECTION
Hedi Slimane's debut collection for Celine received various reviews. The collection has a glamorous side and rock and roll. Oversized silhouettes, exaggerated linen details, short lengths, and lots of colors give it a bit of an 80's vibe. It might be ideal for dancing the night away at your favorite hip-hop venue, but it doesn't have a home of general fame. Sri also introduced Celine to menswear and skinny jeans that perfectly matched her signature look.
HAIDER ACKERMANN'S SPRING 2019 COLLECTION
As the cultural debate about gender identity continues, designers are embracing the shift in brand acceptance and their brand positioning in general by introducing clothing collections. Their men and women together, launching transgender models and even launching an entire unisex collection. At Givenchy, Clare Waight Keller was inspired by 1930s writer and explorer Annemarie Schwarzenbach. Keller sent his models a manly short Perfecto tucked into military pants as a direct tribute to Schwarzenbach's photo. In the evening, she wore an elegant asymmetrical dress with a slit. Haider Ackermann has demonstrated androgynous styles for years, with Tilda Swinton as the muse. Ackermann mastered the creative art of sewing. For spring, there are plenty of brightly colored outfits, loose shirts with intricate embroidery and fabric pajamas. While the unisex concept has been seen on several catwalks this season, Ackermann's version is effortless and stylish.
THOM BROWNE SPRING/SUMMER 2018
American designer Thom Browne is famous for creating amazing new worlds. Four times a year (two women and two men), his shows evoke a sublime and warm space to evoke the reaction of the audience. What you see the room can be seen without walls, but the imagination of the white ribbon wildlife is a fully customized gray wool color. It's a great experience, and it's proof that designers can refocus on their eyes and see things up close from a new perspective. Despite his men's training, his women's clothing, introduced in 2011, follows a similar logic. The first Paris women's clothing parade was perhaps his biggest show at Paris's luxury Hotel de Ville. So he welcomed a man in a suit of delicate organza suits high heels. A huge white ball hangs from the ceiling. Part of the Paris fashion show, the collection is a tuned symphony. Classic American fabrics such as the Brown Madras are reproduced with intricately tied bands featuring the organza tulle of the test.
RODARTE
So if you are looking for a little getaway or just bringing a little relief and fun into your life, it might be time for a wardrobe change. There are no basic rules for evasion seduction, other than it has to be dominant enough to put you in a different frame of mind. and that would definitely involve a lot of glitter and shaggy a la Rodarte.
Brands can create doors with common stories set in the distant past or in the sun to stay relevant and fulfill their needs. The onlooker's impact on popular series like Bridgerton should be tracked as it is a source of inspiration for releasing new fugitive clothes and designs.Giorgio Armani Privé’s collection or Dior’s 15th century tarot-cards inspired Couture SS21 are prime examples of escapist clothing rooted in historical style. Finally, recent and emerging trends such as trendy clothing or Renaissance fashion and their representation on social media should not be overlooked by the fashion industry.
