Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010: Day 6

Day 6 of PFW SS'10 was absolutely spectacular! I think it is safe to say that Alexander McQueen stole the show...

Alexander McQueen

Short, reptile-patterned, digitally printed dresses, mind boggling sculptural shoes (an understatement. My favourite pair was worn with the all-gold dress: i.e. the nude/pink with blue crystals - absolutely stunning!).

Chanel

I must admit I was not a fan of the 'farm' setting, and although there were some pretty pieces, it was not spectacular...

Valentino

Although this collection was not instantly recognisable as 'Valentino', I could still see his influence in the many many ruffles...romantic soft tones of nude, rose, lavender, gold, and gray that have become the big color story of the season. Swirling organza around the body tied off with a flamboyant bow, embroidered tulle T-shirt dresses in antique laces and geometric metal paillettes, and printed chiffon with black orchids... Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli sure put their own 'stamp' onto this collection (with not a red dress in sight...)

Chloe

This may be the most 'Chloe' collection I have seen in the last few years, since Phoebe Philo left. I quite liked the fluidity of these pieces.
