What can we expect?

The next six months include various styles. We have seen them a little bit but have officially come off as couture by designers. If you are very interested on keeping that closet up to date for the spring and summer, here is a list of what to keep in mind!

  • Low wasted everything: from jeans, skirts, and cargo pants. If you’re out of the loop, look up Y2K because it’s back. Everyone is bringing it back for its comeback, and fashion icons from the 2000s might serve as your sources of inspiration. Givenchy and Stella McCartney delivered the best designs during this fashion week.
  • Metallics:These lovely colors should be used during the day as well as at night. No matter if it’s for accessorizing or if it takes the form of jeans, blazers, or skirts. These hues will make your ensemble pop with subtle accents. These shades were refreshed by Schiaparelli and Balmain for this fashion week.
  • Bows: Before you go any further, Loewe and Dior are bringing back bows. Bows were formerly applied as a big voluminous touch, but this time it’s about all sizes, especially minimalistic ones. With barely noticeable themes, designers are attempting to remain subtle.
  • Mini Bags: As for the most crucial accessory to complete your style, bags and purses. Chanel is influencing consumers to continue using small bags. They really are extremely flattering, and considering they’re small, they fit a lot of your daily needs.

Iconic Collections

Lion heads and circuses were the star themes for the collections from all labels. Elsa Schiaparelli presented her famous Circus collection in 1938, currently in exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs. Fashion travels and repeats, so this season Schiaparelli, Chanel, Valentino all took this challenge into their unique designs.

 

Surprising Celebrity Outfits Lookbook 

Doja Cat’s look

Celebrity and singer, Doja Cat, is hiding underneath 30,000 crimson red crystals. The theme for the fashion show was “Inferno Couture.” This process took about four hours, almost five. Everyone was raving one how she looked like a sparkling brilliance and titled her own look, ‘Doja’s Inferno’. People were amazed on how she was able to survive in this outfit but were really annoyed at the fact she had no eyebrows. Nonetheless, she was a true feast for the eyes and luminous. Doja Cat really knows how to make an entrance.

Kylie Jenner’s Look

With a lion head glued to her clothing, Kylie Jenner kicked the week off to a bold and feisty start. With the incredibly lifelike false head from the Schiaparelli pre-released collection, Kylie stole the show. When Kylie entered, she asserted to everyone that she understood just how to balance herself and the lion head so that each received the same amount of attention.

When they saw the show’s videos on the internet, where the surreal lion look was seen on the runway, everyone went rogue. Many people believed she was humiliated and shouldn’t have worn it knowing it will be displayed on the runway. She wasn’t, as the public figure herself knew since the outfit was a component of the collection and was intended to coordinate with the snow leopard dress. Both the model and Kylie Jenner were stunning since they knew how to work that dress.

General Look

As mentioned before street style was a very common aspect in celebrity looks for the week. They really screamed simple designs, so you can for sure take some inspiration for your personal style.

Paris Fashion Week changed the game and undoubtedly provided the audience with more engaging concepts. It described the evolution of how designers seek to make their clothes convenient for individuals who don’t enjoy being excessive; it was innovative yet simplistic. Yet still fashionable, couture.
