Paris Fashion Week: A Pretty Parade
Marc Jacobs conjured his proper ladies once again for Louis Vuitton in full, swishing skirts and some intriguing jackets of leather that appeared to be moulded onto the models. The floral prints were so fresh and spring-like I had forgotten that this collection is for autumn. And who cares? When would you not want to wear these clothes?
He also made some interesting model choices - the bikini babes were out in full force and might I say they blended perfectly (though I thought Bar Rafaeli looked a bit lost in clothes): Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Noemie Lenoir, Karolina Kurkova and Laeticia Casta (though the latter two began their careers in high fashion). And surprise! Elle Macpherson, who wore the final look:
Ruffles both structured and delicate and lots of lace appliques from Valentino:
And Miu Miu's acid hues of vivid purple and orange make me long for Luella:
I want to ogle the bags!

Those MJ looks are fabulous. I'm fancying myself wearing them walking down the streets this fall. Ahhh! To dream.

Oh, I am still such a sucker for 1950's full circle skirts.

I love everything I have seen so far of the Valentino A/W. Ruffles never looked so elegant.

Beautiful collections, especially LV, but i wasn't as enamoured with miu miu compared to SS, i'm possibly still fawnin over their gorgeous spring prints

VintJunky - I know exactly what you mean, Miu Miu's spring prints set the bar for irresistibility in their future collections!
