The Paris Couture shows ...

Bonjour Stardoll Lovelies,

The Paris Couture shows are in. Every seam has been stitched, ribbon tied, and bead sewn. The extravagance and beauty is like a ray of sunshine on these rainy days.

In a nutshell.........

Chanel

The Karl Lagerfeld, show for Chanel was stunning. Taking inspiration, ‘he started with a clean sheet of paper’. The whole idea was to walk into spring in a carefree way, leaving the troubles we hear on the news, in the dark..

Beautiful white flowers covered the hair and clothes, but the silhouette was simple and ‘A’ line. All typical Chanel details were there, but made tiny with mini crystals, beads and braids. A beautiful Fresh collection that shows, Couture is still alive and blooming like a beautiful flower.

THINK WHITE FLOWERS, SIMPLE WHITE DRESSES, GLITTERING FABRICS and PRETTY BLACK ACCESSORIES.

Christian Dior

“It's our job to make people dream” John Galliano said of his Latest Dior couture show. Inspired by Dutch Painters, the huge artist sleeves were clearly seen. The skirts looked like huge flowers turned upside down, with tiny waists that are soooooo Dior. The colors were straight out of an old oil painting. Mustard yellows, bright reds and powder blues. Details, included beautiful tulip embroideries and ruffles in lace, inspired by old blue and white porcelain.

THINK RIBBONS, VOLUME, SMALL WAISTS and BIG SLEEVES.

Givenchy

Here at Stardoll, we all love Givenchy. The runway show was entirely covered in beautiful rose petals. Creative Director Riccardo Tisci, is a lover of dark romance and Goth. The collection was a mix of tight body con, big Edwardian shoulders and classic roman goddess style togas. Bandage style wrapping, (Think Egyptian Mummy) could be seen in the details. Fresh lemon yellow, powder lilac, beige and ending in black. A flashback to 1980’s, with the use of lycra and shapely suits, with powerful shoulders.

THINK PUFFY SLEEVES, GODDESS DRAPING, BODY CON and PALE COLOURS.

Style.com, described it as ‘modern-elegant eveningwear’.

Here at Stardoll, we like to call it, ‘stuff we want Stardoll to make so we can wear it!”. Quietly raise your hand if you agree!!!

Until then we will have to experiment with what we already have.

I have put together a look inspired by the Chanel,
