"Mon dieu, it's over. Paris Fashion Week crowned an ever-extending fashion month with a seismic shakeup that resulted in 14 designers presenting debuts, and the "essence" of brands brought into question more than ever by pundits and social media commentators alike. Now that we've had a moment to metabolize the week (and a half), we pluck three golden threads that glinted through this season's gorgeous, tangled weave: a yearning for grandeur, a thriving avant-garde, and a renewed vision of womanhood."
"Echoes of GrandeurA wave of splendor swept through Paris as designers indulged in ceremony, drapery, and emotional excess, reaching back into history's wardrobe to conjure a kind of baroque futurist reverie. A bygone opulence echoed through Saint Laurent's countess silhouettes, Valentino's eerie vintage, and Chloé's sunlit nostalgia, with each marque tapping into the grandeur of silk and lace, ruffles and ruching in its own way."
