We have an embarrassment of riches in fashion today, and I think it is good for the whole industry. Even though most designers have too much pride to slack, new designers will keep the standards on their toes. I liked a lot of most of these designers, and some of all, but experience still shows. Even the venue for Chanel’s last show was both timeless and on the rhythmic moving edge. These creations move like the music. This little bit just floats.
Feathers were very much in at the latest shows and they certainly add to the movement. Dior’s creations simply floated down the runway. She is a little less wild and a bit more sophisticated. There were many very lovely creations and the idea of creating the animal look was more successful than fur.
Jean Paul Gautier is elegant and flip. His designs stay impressive over time and his choice of textures is exciting. This number sways and swings down the runway and the parts at waist and hips accentuate the femininity of the model.
