PARIS FASHION WEEK FALL WINTER 2017/2018 WOMEN COLLECTION
 
The Fashion Week in PARIS  is over !
 

PARIS Fashion Week has been extremely vibrant this year. All of our clients and even their competitors have presented Creativity, Style, and Beauty. After the last show, we had 3 weeks of intense showrooms supporting the sales of the collections, doing the editing, and talking to Media. The collections in this March edition have been great combining both Image and Business. And this is a good sign knowing that all those collections will be in store for the 2017 fall winter season. The Business of Fashion will be good this year. We are in an Industry where the success is only met when Brands, Product Collections and Communication & Retail are synchronized and synergized. And for several brands we are following, it is indeed the case.  
I have seen more than 30 Fashion Shows in Paris, and my favorite has been SAINT LAURENT ( KERING Group)  by Antony Vaccarello, which has really met a great success both with the Trade, the Press and the Public. Antony has declared “I couldn’t do a show without those golden years, but I wanted to take that further.”  And he did it. His collection is all “über-luxe”, full of leather, Sexy, Rock, Free with a brute Romantic feeling and faithful to Mr Saint Laurent. This amazing collection is consolidating the new inspiration Antony Vaccarello is bringing to SAINT LAURENT.  The success of this collection is going to be huge, and will probably continue to boost the business success of this fashion company. 

Also in this PARIS Fashion Week,  I have seen more than 30 fashion shows, here what I retain in an alphabetical order and one look per brand - see below:

​ 

  1. Alexander McQueen : Beautiful collection by Sarah Burton with a new modernity to the Brand but inspired by the past, the tradition, the British land and a witchy symbols of suns and moons.
  2. Balenciaga: Demna Gvasalia is reinventing the Brand with surprising asymmetrical clothes and a beautiful re edition of the Balenciaga master evening dresses for the 100th anniversary.
  3. Balmain with Olivier Rousteing is offering a very important collection for a modern amazon in 81 looks.
  4. Celine: a chic and conceptual collection by Phoebe Philo: "Experiental".
  5. Chanel: is ready for the space age and the Giant Space Rocket was on stage. A strong collection again by Karl Lagerfeld. The Gabriel bag is going to be successful, I feel it.
  6. Chloe: a very stylish goodbye collection by Clare Waight Keller that is now moving to Givenchy 
  7. Dior: Blue is the New Black for Maria Grazia Chiuri, a very free, military, feminist, collection and bringing back the french leather berets by Stephen Jones
  8. Dries Van Noten is very faithful to his style and showing it again this season for his 100th show surrounded by all his friends.
  9. Élie Saab for a day and night collection confirming his talent with a collection that is "Dark, Romantic Stuff" as he put it. The inspiration was Gisele, supernatural, romantic heroine.

  14. Issey Miyake, is reaffirming his style in this collection. Auroral, Plasma, the fabrics were vibrating. Intriguing!
  15. Jacquemus, the French avant garde is reinventing style, to follow in the years to come. His collection is "the story of a Parisian girl that fall in love with a gypsy, and try to look gypsy", a great fashion story.
  16. Lanvin, elegant and feminine, a nice collection by Bouchra Jarrar full of "tenderness and force".
  17. Loewe, is breaking the codes and is proposing something new under the creative leadership of Jonathan Anderson. To check also, the new bag lines.
