Paris Fashion Week FW 11-12 Part 4

The last post on Paris fashion week... Starting with Yves Saint Laurent, with a very unremarkable collection, in my opinion. Still, some pretty looks were to be seen. What you'd expect of a YSL show.





Alexander McQueen's Sarah Burton keeps proving herself to be the right person for the uber-hard job of substituting Lee in his namesake brand as creative director. As per usual, her collection seems more feminine and brighter, but she respects the brand. I really like her. Oh, and I love the shoes!








Some urban looks at Vivienne Westwood. She's so cool and British! I love her.






I didn't like Nina Ricci at all! Only these couple of looks, but apart from that, thumb down.



Zac Posen was gorgeous this season. Very sculptural silhouettes, tight and colorful. And that floor length cape is to die for.






And, last but so very def. not least, Lanvin. I'm sorry but I can't judge objectively this collection. I'm too biased in favor of Alber Elbaz. I adore him! I can say the clothes were too baggy for my taste, but I still like it.









That's all! It was a great season!! Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!

Paris Fashion Week Nostalgia

I'm feeling pretty nostalgic at the moment. I miss Paris so much! Here are some pictures of the fashion weeks I attended... I'm dying to go back!
I thought I'd start chronologically, so, in this post, I'll show you some of my favorite moments of Paris Fashion Week SS 2010.

I'll show, first, the very first time I met Anna dello Russo. I remember I didn't even know who she was, but I saw her wearing this and I thought to myself: "who's that!?". After that day, I always looked for her to see what she was wearing. She always stood up from the crowd. But this is the outfit that made me notice her... and love her!... Her highness, at the end of the Gareth Pugh show:

Wearing Balmain at the entrance of Nina Ricci show:


At Belenciaga, wearing Balenciaga head to toe:



The first time I met Carine Roitfeld, my favorite editor in chief!


And another first, the first time I ever saw Anna Wintour. Granted, only briefly, but I was so starstruck! Here she is, leaving Rochas at full speed:



Me and Grace Coddington at the entrance of the Nina Ricci show:



My first backstage at Vivienne Westwood and a picture of the woman herself:





Dita Von Teese hurrying on her way to Dior.


Karlie Kloss and my friends, after Yamamoto show. She's so nice!!



Some celebrity sightseeing at Gareth Pugh. That's me and Adrien Grenier. He's so cute in person!


And that's me and model Eniko.


And finally, model legend Naomi Campbell walking for Chapurin and rushing off back to London afterwards.




I just realized there are too many pictures and memories for a single post. See you really soon with more: Viktor&Rolf and Alexander's McQueen last show!
