AW12 Paris Couture

The Paris couture shows surprised me a little this season. There was a shift from the usual extravagance & trickery to a more pared down & dare I say wearable theme.

Here are some of my favourites...

Elegance at Alexis Mabille...

Ethereal colour at Armani Privé...

Classic simplicity at Bouchra Jarrar...

Raf Simons stunning début at Dior...

A sense of frivolity at Giambattista Valli...

A nod to Art Deco at Jean Paul Gaultier...

Amazing depth of colour & moodiness at Valentino...

SS12 Couture shows

My favourite couture show this season by far was that of Giambattista Valli. There were gorgeous monochromes, pretty bows & amazing floral headpieces all combining to showcase a totally wearable collection.

AW11 Couture shows

So the Couture shows have rolled around again. I know I'm a little late in posting this round-up but after a few days away in Lincolnshire where technology is non-existent in our household, I've had some catching up to do.

I wasn't quite as impressed with these Autumn/Winter collections as I was with those for Spring/Summer. Surprising really, as I'm very much a winter clothing girl.

Nevertheless I found several looks which tickled my fancy. So here they are...
