Louis Vuitton Paris Fall 2010




Louis Vuitton
by Marc Jacobs
The era of the young Bardot, 
of fifties-sixties wasp waists, and circle skirts.

A clash of fabrics, such as tweed with velvet, 
fur-trims on knits, and lace over rose-print.


Pinstriped bustiers crafted for maximum uplift.

Beribboned high waists.

Curvy, big-button jackets cut with peplum hems.

The knitted tunic-dresses over the full skirts.

A rose-pink corset with rise-and-fall crinoline, 
draped in front to show the silver lining.

 

Paris Fall 2010



Chanel
by Karl Lagerfeld
All the fur that snuggled over shoulders, 
was puffed into bulbous sleeves,
edged hemlines or appeared on yeti boots 
was fabulously fake.

The hit-of-the-season, 
   a vest over the classic tweed jacket.

Fake-fur-trimmed tweeds.

Fur formed deep pelmets 
on the lower half of leather jackets.
Thick fur chaps.

Two-tone shoes, covered with plastic galoshes.
The signature quilted bag
buried in a patchwork of fur.
 
Chloé
by Hannah Gibbon
A long-sleeved silk blouse 
and high-waist flared trousers.
The definitive trouser shape of the season.

 Menswear for women, in shades of brown,
from camel to butterscotch.
A hooded wrap coat in cashmere
over a ribbed turtleneck. 

  Western styling 
  a pair of velvet, gold-embroidered jeans. 

 
Simple shifts, cut loosely around the body.


Dries Van Noten
’50s hourglass coats 
 A full-skirted trench coat in olive drab.

A sleeveless double-breasted tweed dress
with leopard-print edging the neckline.
A full-skirted shirtwaister in military fabric
with a small turn-down collar.

A sloppy khaki knit over a slim, 
magenta printed skirt 
dragging a romantic train.
A sweatshirt-material top 
over a rich brocade dirndl.

The clean and tony, 
forward-looking classics of the future.

and off-center buttons.

Leather-pocketed skirts and dresses.

  The shirt-tail effect, 
in a navy knitted vest over a knee skirt,
in a loose cream chiffon poet's shirt
with patch pockets.
                              
A navy sheepskin coat with black leather trim 
and a raised ivory collar. 
A stunning creamy teddy-bear shearling cape.
