Long-legged models strode across a pale pink
carpet in long, sleek dresses, some wispy at the bottom, and
wrapped in sharp-shouldered tuxedos and oversize faux-fur coats,
as electronic music by French DJ Sebastian played.
In his show notes, creative director Anthony Vaccarello cited
the style of 20th century anti-fascist poet Nancy Cunard, known
to favour chunky jewellery and masculine silhouettes.
Echoing her look, some outfits were accessorised with stacks of
large bracelets or prominent earrings while long coats and low-waisted
jackets were worn with the collars turned up.
Soft fabric flowers pinned to dresses and jackets added a touch
of romance to the somber colour palette of mostly black with
touches of ivory and light brown.
The Kering-owned label closed the second day of shows at Paris
Fashion Week, which runs through March 8 and caps a month of
fashion events in New York, London and Milan.
At the end of the show, Vaccarello dipped into the crowd to
embrace guests in the front row, including fashion icon Betty
Catroux and actress Catherine Deneuve.
