Paris Couture Fashion Week 2012

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Paris Haute Couture Week 2012 officially opened it's doors on Monday to world class designers and stunning supermodels, displaying an array of exquisite clothes. This is an updated view of some of the most impressive collections. Click on the pictures for a larger view.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Versace</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQFpfFymMKLPhDSlgvJvxnDl1P3pDvKLO5iIX1YWmP7wabWpL7C6aR5nC6q5uYlWReZpAI2d6B-3W-ATJP3XEMTBjhTH6FIwUesI_mFY0saSzoTmtTLI0Qp6mAM5GSBIvfQ7rA8XoTq6eQ/s1600/couture1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQFpfFymMKLPhDSlgvJvxnDl1P3pDvKLO5iIX1YWmP7wabWpL7C6aR5nC6q5uYlWReZpAI2d6B-3W-ATJP3XEMTBjhTH6FIwUesI_mFY0saSzoTmtTLI0Qp6mAM5GSBIvfQ7rA8XoTq6eQ/s640/couture1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Donatella sent a small group of Glamazons down the <i>Versace</i> Haute Couture runway for the the first time in 8 years. Glistening dresses seemed to be moulded onto the models, with sculpted corsets, extended hip flounces and rounded strapless necklines. Subtle metallics paled in comparison to the striking shades of tangerine, yellow and lime. High pony tails and smokey eyes completed the glam-warrior looks. I wished for more pizazz, less shine.</span></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Chanel</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiaF_9UJHS4TbC9vEXJlibFYMZVrzGJO9JG8JyhOIAOUXURyBCSTTBxZgKZ2VMxUcAOWZrUHmn4yao3IQs0wD4vN5DaPiUu0oqrmEyCTHQWtvPzumfuQ6e3pxXh7Q8AKJCQFPInWFBEvjE/s1600/couture3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiaF_9UJHS4TbC9vEXJlibFYMZVrzGJO9JG8JyhOIAOUXURyBCSTTBxZgKZ2VMxUcAOWZrUHmn4yao3IQs0wD4vN5DaPiUu0oqrmEyCTHQWtvPzumfuQ6e3pxXh7Q8AKJCQFPInWFBEvjE/s640/couture3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Azure skies to starry nights - every shade of blue was represented at <i>Chanel's</i> 2012 Couture showing. Models in faux mohawks and fascinators walked down the aisle, set to look like the inside of an airplane. Tweed dress suits in powder blue, drop-waists and pocket seamed shifts with high cuffed necks, a scattering of blue sequins that shimmered like the sun on an ocean wave. Longer length gowns were displayed in midnight blue and the palest shade of blue chiffon. A couture take on air hostess outfits - if only!</span></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Giambattista Valli</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBTYQBaAgjzB1_hCg-1uB3Ndxu5Nmrn6RPbnY5LNdCvFEHt-RvckezNDJMreDDaI1gWbMYc8DKuNmROw3NbpOeyCiqkE0jP9Vo_jaC-I2Ge6X_AOAwOueFKiUOxnawSeN4LDWXOTuEqsph/s1600/couture2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBTYQBaAgjzB1_hCg-1uB3Ndxu5Nmrn6RPbnY5LNdCvFEHt-RvckezNDJMreDDaI1gWbMYc8DKuNmROw3NbpOeyCiqkE0jP9Vo_jaC-I2Ge6X_AOAwOueFKiUOxnawSeN4LDWXOTuEqsph/s640/couture2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Giambattista Valli</i> Couture show expressed sensual femininity: cream and black sheer lace dresses, petal-smothered skirts, sequins, satin and bows. I can picture someone like Olivia Palermo in the feathered frock, pictured second on the top row. Splashes of raspberry red, plum and fuchsia stole the scene with billowy evening gowns. Models wore elaborate floral headpieces, cohesively fitting in with the summery floral print gowns.</span></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Christian Dior </b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDZ67nsVy9Q29EKKGvv_AwIzp2OG2xniJY6Plb51-bTaETp-nKWpw4R4dVTxZlxV8UtqWqtBOqWrfsHvo93XSfsAWaTJEjobfVHbRUpV9JvGiC9NiseSLCRUxMg6w7sfB9Sftrnp1E8YgV/s1600/couture4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDZ67nsVy9Q29EKKGvv_AwIzp2OG2xniJY6Plb51-bTaETp-nKWpw4R4dVTxZlxV8UtqWqtBOqWrfsHvo93XSfsAWaTJEjobfVHbRUpV9JvGiC9NiseSLCRUxMg6w7sfB9Sftrnp1E8YgV/s640/couture4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i> Christian Dior's </i>Haute Couture collection brings forth vintage-inspired shapes, from the swanky 50's to the more opulent Victorian era. A-line dresses were embroidered with floral designs, while pencil skirts were seen in houndstooth and grid prints. There was an interesting juxtaposition of 'heavy' sheerness. Layers and layers of see-through tulle were skillfully constructed into dramatic gowns with sizable skirts. Ruffles are certainly having a moment.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Armani Privé</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjck9eYXxKX1VO8y2UlEaqrItkNtKSZS_wCrOF18OKqT51CHvcRqa_MsI4R8D1vCUoRTGQh9JJyrCpiJpIFgBIRNyaod9pY6qOwsYVjj0jh0Cq54rTzAhBo-4-ARH_8yPS_54FyrQF_OxlU/s1600/couture5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjck9eYXxKX1VO8y2UlEaqrItkNtKSZS_wCrOF18OKqT51CHvcRqa_MsI4R8D1vCUoRTGQh9JJyrCpiJpIFgBIRNyaod9pY6qOwsYVjj0jh0Cq54rTzAhBo-4-ARH_8yPS_54FyrQF_OxlU/s640/couture5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Blue was to Chanel as green is to <i>Armani</i> this Couture season. Viridescent shades of green illuminated the striped catwalk, bringing with it chic reptilian-like jackets over mesh shirts and folded silk skirts. The under-the-sea extravaganza continued with a blinding neon gown rolled in sequins, graphic prints unfolded to reveal an inner black bodice, multi-layered mermaid gowns wrapped to resemble seaweed and a conspicuous shade of chartreuse which will ensure that <i>this</i> is an Armani range to be remembered.</span></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Stephane Rolland</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBmPMLH5WR6zD-1MVsaPyV0cqVpxvLm9fKtPc6u2ycpHxeZ15uomiLDref9442q-ogxqm7udFfChQ6UkEtHHbVp5vLQm46CzepwQHH7doCluKaQBVx8OwrhKQzpNQwBmn_v786VyhMS93r/s1600/couture6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBmPMLH5WR6zD-1MVsaPyV0cqVpxvLm9fKtPc6u2ycpHxeZ15uomiLDref9442q-ogxqm7udFfChQ6UkEtHHbVp5vLQm46CzepwQHH7doCluKaQBVx8OwrhKQzpNQwBmn_v786VyhMS93r/s640/couture6.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Stephane Rolland's</i> Couture collection is one of my favourites from all featured in this post. Because he reimagined the basics, creating avant-garde designs and innovative silhouettes. Exaggerated origami-folds, geometric cut-outs, gold metal panelling, unfurling ruffles and architectural shapes. He chose to express these spectacular designs using a simple colour palette of black, white, red and lime green (which has been quite popular so far). Beautifully draped gowns swept the floor in silk jersey, gazar and organza. A masterful collection with an aura of confidence and allure.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Valentino</b></span> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihGZLZFMNy_FWj-UQwEV6OONFLbCS14RYOuij8WyI7BeHq_c-9rfWz2GZzlTHiRTpAfOP3iSW4a2ZdOkMxx8VQyqir6Kl8UAzgSMeFLRhWD8fIm9jSnPejyhC3VZ_CBIthvo9Pw9Ga_bx4/s1600/couture7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihGZLZFMNy_FWj-UQwEV6OONFLbCS14RYOuij8WyI7BeHq_c-9rfWz2GZzlTHiRTpAfOP3iSW4a2ZdOkMxx8VQyqir6Kl8UAzgSMeFLRhWD8fIm9jSnPejyhC3VZ_CBIthvo9Pw9Ga_bx4/s640/couture7.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There was a feeling of regal antiquity surrounding <i>Valentino's</i> Spring Couture collection. If modern monarchy existed today as it did in the 18th century, I can imagine that this is what real-life princesses would wear. Prim white-to-ivory knee-length dresses, woven from the finest cotton and latticed lace. Feathery light floral frocks, demure as can be with high-frilled collars and sheer organza sleeves. A range that charms with it's maidenly grace.  </span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Zuhair Murad</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwSmNe3BQ6g2tldesR69zvPiqRDYD2fDEih2d3jSXXsdCyaNjX32cDtFBT3-ywyxGcDZkcFcZQKnlscFOS34RDbmWSnqd0kuBtljdv4tuA4jtfkyBUR5Jkx_LK8KrVxZpZIuURquseU1xh/s1600/couture8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwSmNe3BQ6g2tldesR69zvPiqRDYD2fDEih2d3jSXXsdCyaNjX32cDtFBT3-ywyxGcDZkcFcZQKnlscFOS34RDbmWSnqd0kuBtljdv4tuA4jtfkyBUR5Jkx_LK8KrVxZpZIuURquseU1xh/s640/couture8.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Zuhair Murad's</i> Couture collection is 'glitzy as charged' for Spring 2012. Extravagantly beaded gowns were dipped in champagne golds and varnished metallics. Black floral embroidery was starkly contrasted with nude-tone slips, while hourglass-enhancing silhouettes were shaped to perfection. Crystal-embellished gowns featured plunging necklines and tails of tulle. It's luxury meets sensuality. I can see many a country-singing-star lapping this one up.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div>

Looks Of The Week - 21/01/12

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With all the excitement of the Golden Globes this week, there were so many other interesting outfits that were overlooked. Here is the roundup.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Pretty & Poised</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkeRCJA9Z5dtLsOwXsrnUrl0HeWd9jLWjIQ-G7m-byB_q-wN09GZOeQ-4ixXsLl6Y6cTciFR1agRVgUbnn3FnsyxHuZvXqeLYSyVu74PxNXJ1ZoHimoFuOct57G1kbFsuMIxvasVZ3nELD/s1600/lotw.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkeRCJA9Z5dtLsOwXsrnUrl0HeWd9jLWjIQ-G7m-byB_q-wN09GZOeQ-4ixXsLl6Y6cTciFR1agRVgUbnn3FnsyxHuZvXqeLYSyVu74PxNXJ1ZoHimoFuOct57G1kbFsuMIxvasVZ3nELD/s640/lotw.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Rachel Bilson </b>wore a vanilla mint frothy <i>Chanel</i> frock to the 'Art of Elysium' gala. It features an embellished bodice with full tulle and feather fringed skirt. This isn't a look that just anyone could pull off, but the 'Hart of Dixie' actress does so charmingly. She carried a cream clutch and wore satin <i>Casadei</i> pumps.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Rachel Zoe</b> attended the Golden Globes After Party in one of her own designs, a glossy white and gold foil scallop print gown with ruffle cap-sleeves. A quilted gold clutch completed her impressive look.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Kirsten Dunst</b> was graceful in a romantic embroidered black <i>Valentino</i> gown with sheer yoke and sleeves. I like that she turned the makeup up a notch for a change.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Kaley Cuoco</b> is still on a fashion high since hosting last week's People Choice Awards.

All these ladies graced the blue carpet at the InStyle Golden Globes After Party in Hollywood this week.</span></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Creative Coats</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNrw-5wANErf0v7lCby_oyLFmZ38q2ss9gF_ciA1g66xfuXhPKclxSMOCRu_mN3286CjlzhUOB_YsmJUNK3q21bJEKz37JmxuXlNjIctsQ9yHscRLWOqDZ8SXbyRkzhfEshRKdMFtDk_EQ/s1600/lotw3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNrw-5wANErf0v7lCby_oyLFmZ38q2ss9gF_ciA1g66xfuXhPKclxSMOCRu_mN3286CjlzhUOB_YsmJUNK3q21bJEKz37JmxuXlNjIctsQ9yHscRLWOqDZ8SXbyRkzhfEshRKdMFtDk_EQ/s640/lotw3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's a good week for <b>Kirsten Dunst</b>, who features twice on this list. She brightened up the <i>Rodarte</i> Dinner at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, in a chic mustard yellow <i>Stella McCartney</i> one-button blazer. She wore it over a prim ivory shirt, and gold and yellow printed brocade trousers, both by <i>Rodarte</i>. We can't see it well, but her heels are by <i>Jimmy Choo</i>.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Trendsetter <b>Kate Moss</b> looked fabulous in a faux fur leopard print jacket by <i>Topshop</i>, worn with an all-black ensemble and fringed scarf.

Asian actress <i>Zhang Zilin</i> was breathtaking in Elie Saab. The rose red chiffon dress features a lace-trimmed asymmetrical neckline and soft draping.
