Anna Dello Russo at Balmain

Anna Dello Russo posed for dozens of photographers in a window display of gilded mirrors outside the Balmain show yesterday. Love how the studded black and gold dress (Versace SS 2012?) goes with the backdrop!

7 Days of Anna Dello Russo

Rarely do you see anyone have as much fun with fashion as Anna Dello Russo. Just when we thought she couldn’t top the last outrageously fashionable outfit during Paris fashion week, she would arrive in a completely different ensemble, having gone back to the hotel to change between shows. She favors designers from her native Italy and doesn’t shy from color or pattern. I can’t imagine how she packs the variety of headpieces, boots, suits, furs, jewels and dresses it takes for a single week, but I picture a couple of Louis Vuitton steamer trunks in her hotel room. Hats off to this over-the-top fashion plate who radiates chic sunshine wherever she goes. A seven-day roundup, after the jump.  (more…)

Kanye West and Anna Dello Russo at Sonia Rykiel

This was one of the most dramatic entrances at the Sonia Rykiel show yesterday at Place de la Concorde: Kanye West and Anna Dello Russo, together! We all did a double take. Kanye has been hitting a lot of the Paris fashion week shows and, by the look of his cool red kicks, has a true interest in fashion. Anna Dello Russo wears a beautiful black fur and over-the-knee patent leather boots.

Last Show: Louis Vuitton SS2011

Alas, it’s always sad when Fashion Week ends, so I’ve been delaying this post for weeks. But on the last day in Paris, the Louis Vuitton show capped off the week, and a number of interesting models, celebs and fashion people made the scene.

Alexander McQueen SS2011

This much-anticipated show was the first after Alexander McQueen’s tragic death last spring, with his friend and colleague Sarah Burton taking the reins. The show seemed to provoke a bittersweet reaction in some of the guests – you can see strains of the old McQueen in Burton’s designs, since she had been his collaborator for so long. The dark, Gothic sensibility is still there – particularly in this season’s ravishing Alexander McQueen boots designed by Burton – but the spring designs were deftly turned out by Burton’s lighter hand, giving McQueen fans hope for the future of the line.

Alexander McQueen boots are part of a smart new interpretation of evening wear: tuxedo jacket, frilled white blouse, a swingy jet bead necklace and skinny black jeans. (more…)

Chanel SS2011

Some of the most glamorous women in the world converged upon the Grand Palais in Paris last week for the huge, blockbuster Chanel show that won rave reviews. As ever with Karl Lagerfeld’s shows, many guests wore Chanel from head to toe in a show of support (that verges on adoration) of the French master designer.

Chloe SS2011

Chloe’s autumn/winter 2010 collection has already proved highly influential this fall with its wide-legged trousers and camel coats, so the spring/summer 2011 show was a must-see for many. The distinctive colors of Chloe’s fall line were on display on the guests in the Tuileries.

Viktor & Rolf SS2011

This show took place on a Saturday in the Tuileries. But as with Parisians themselves, who shop along the Rue St. Honore wearing the chicest coats and shoes, most of the guests did not relax their high style at all for the weekend.
