Céline unveiled spring/summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection designed by Phoebe Philo.

The show opened with a series of white lingerie slip dresses and camisoles (it seems to be a trend for spring and summer) which arrived in silk and leather versions and trimmed with black lace. They had ironed-in creases as though they had been neatly folded and pulled straight out of a suitcase. Other pieces too had that same feeling, like a crinkled shirt dress that looked like it might have been slept in, but prettily so, and came grounded with a modern cowboy boot. From lingerie dressing the collection progressed into structured outerwear, plush white furs, and suiting-like plaids, before coming to a close with a leather dress with a knit mid-section worn over loose cream trousers.

One is sure – this season’s Céline collection is a lesson in contrasts

Fausto Puglisi unveiled his Emanuel Ungaro Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection today in Paris Fashion Week.

Great designers’ greatness is stamped on our memory by the signature codes they leave behind them. Hence, when other designers succeed the house’s founder, they face a challenge: a delicate wrestle between the codes they have signed up to inherit and the urge to express their own point of view. Their own codes and Puglisi has his code,in fact Fausto Puglisi chose to focus on a set of sweetly provocative floral macramé looks, all froth and of-that-era liberation touched with a softened space Age futurism.Impressively, Puglisi re-established a connection with the Swiss factory that made Ungaro’s ’60s pieces to create a wonderfully psychedelic lace macramé of ochre flowers and paisley petals used in his last capelet—teamed with matching thigh-highs and a long loose skirt. The netted-check that ran throughout the collection, even down to the weave of the pressed-foam ruffles that edged many of these Looks, A harder, more Puglisi-ish preoccupation—expressed itself in the ringlet bonding on black vinyl and hot pink skirts, and as suspension on floral-scattered bustiers. “A little bit bondage, maybe, but also in romantic attitude. This is not a collection for wallflowers or delicate petals—but for a woman in search of punchy, in-your-face prettiness, it will have allure.

Kenzo unveiled Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection. designed by Humberto Leon and Carol Lim.

Humberto Leon and Carol Lim, love a far-flung, unexpected destination for their Kenzo shows.

The modern global traveler, she comes and goes with ease ,just like the models on Kenzo’s spring runway, who were positioned on a series of platform blocks that gently motored out into the venue, assembling into a runway. It was a neat special effect, attention-catching but not so much that it outshined the collection of happy, summer clothes that could be on their way to or from a Destination Holiday.

Cropped tanks with an angled hem and a skinny T-shaped strap in the back paired with matching lean low-rider skirts in chevron-printed patchworks felt fresh. Some were layered over cutout maillots for a sexy swimwear look that was also reflected in cool cutout mesh bodysuits worn open and untucked over skirts and pants.

The accessories, such as belts with little wallets on them and patent gladiators with spongy shower-sandal insoles, made getting there comfortable and easy.

Militarism, that was a prevalent theme in David Komá’s collection yesterday.Donatella Versace just launched her martial-themed spring-summer 2016 collection.. I’s easy to understand why some designers makes military theme so often: the well done military collections can look very sexy and exactly this the most women likes. It can seems contradictory in an industry based on generating Innovation

Komá explaned it in his way – “We have such incredible girls here, and it’s about being inspired by them. Wanting them to look cool, to look fresh, and to enjoy clothes.”

His Inspiration seems to be all Military Service: The first wave was naval, an interplay of navy and white with decorative insignia buttons on looks that included an angled peak-lapel, three-button, double-breasted jacket and minidresses and this rearranged the fold and contrast of traditional sailor suits. As second came the army; the olive section included a cutaway backless dress in leather—the top and bottom half linked by a clasp of three gleaming officer stripes. Soft kicky trousers were topped with deconstructed bodices, while the classic field jacket was turned into a sleeveless minidress with silk poacher pockets—a skinny belt peppered with eyelets cinched the waist. And than came the third part : the Glamour- The cocktail contingency was, as ever, well catered for with this collection and next season his customers have something to wear with it. Yesterday was also Koma’s debut bag collection for the Mugler House that took shape in architectural shapes with metal frames to complement the collection.
