| inspired end to Paris fashion week
PARIS Louis Vuitton capped a Paris fashion week dripping with jewels, sequins and glamorous jetsetters by going back in time to one of the most fashionable ages of travel: The era of the Orient Express. In a bigbudget production, the house that made its name and built its early fortune with leather luggage wheeled out a steamspewing locomotive on tracks at the Louvre Museum for its fallwinter show Wednesday. Models descended from the lifesize replica Orient Express dressed as bourgeois dames in tall Edwardian hats. Each was trailed by a valet carrying naturellement Louis Vuitton hat boxes, vanity cases, and petite valises in crocodile and embroidered sequins. It took a moment for the spectators to focus on the clothes on the platform catwalk. "It's just sumptuous, and what a spectacle," said French cinema icon Catherine Deneuve stepping onto the carriage after the show. The signature bold patterns of Louis Vuitton creative director Marc Jacobs travelled firstclass alongside brocades and jacquards appliqued with laseretched plastic stones. Adding to the time warp, big bejewelled buttons and curved lapels on threequarter length coats harkened to 1960s fashion. Long heavy fabrics in brown, black,[url=http://www.fcgeo.ca]Ugg Canada[/url], siennas and purple plunged to bottomheavy and layered silhouettes. "We're imagining the romance of a better time," said Jacob speaking backstage. "Whatever you try, clothes never really live in the past. They are worn now so they are modern, with a modern take." |
