As prepared for, the Paris haute couture reveals overruned with heavenly styles recording our cumulative creativity. Daniel Roseberry’s Schiaparelli collection admired artists such as Yves Klein and Lucian Freud with his “spontaneous and painterly” productions, looking like sculptures. Thom Browne made a modernistic launching on the highly-exclusive schedule at the Palais Garnier. Julien Dossena provided an intricate reinterpretation of Jean Paul Gaultier’s tradition, showcasing skillful workmanship and character-driven dreams. Pierpaolo Piccioli’s elegant Valentino collection made him and his atelier a well-deserved standing ovation on the stunning premises of the Château de Chantilly, north of Paris.
However, while immersed in the magnificent styles, there were some other easily-missed minutes. Cardi B being performed (rather actually) of the Gaurav Gupta reveal by her own security, dressed head-to-toe in couture, produced rather the web buzz. Chanel’s choice to consist of a dog on the runway had observers craning their necks on the banks of the Seine. Let’s not forget Kaia Gerber’s supermodel turn at Valentino, while using the most complex denims and white t-shirt ensemble. See all the meme-worthy eyeglasses from the couture autumn/winter 2023 programs listed below.
