London-based designer Robert Wun unveiled his Fall/Winter 2024 Haute Couture collection during Paris Fashion Week, marking the 10th anniversary of his label. This was a profound introspection. Wun used the collection as a platform to explore weighty questions about time’s relentless march and its impact on creativity and human existence. The central theme revolved around the passage of time, translated into a narrative through the garments themselves. The opening gown, a majestic black creation with a matching crystal-embroidered veil, embodied “the first falling of snow,” symbolizing winter’s reflective nature. This theme of impermanence continued with a white trailing coat resembling

Fashion week in Paris is always a whirlwind of creativity, but Ashi Studio’s Fall/Winter 2024 Haute Couture collection offered a welcome respite. Instead of frenetic energy, designer Ashi presented a collection inspired by the quiet moments of escape found within the confines of one’s imagination. This wasn’t a literal interpretation of travel, though Ashi did unveil a separate, stunning wardrobe for the cabin crew of the new Riyadh Air earlier that day. Here, the focus was on the mind’s journeys, the daydreams and woolgathering that provide a mental escape. Silhouettes leaned towards the ethereal and cocooning, reflecting the introspective nature

The wait for the Jean Paul Gaultier Fall/Winter 2024 Haute Couture show was sweltering, both literally and figuratively. Guests stewed in the heat, pondering the tightly packed runway and the enigmatic purpose behind it. As the first models emerged, Nicolas Di Felice, the house’s latest guest couturier, unveiled his vision: a stark departure from Gaultier’s usual flamboyant theatricality. Di Felice, known for his provocative designs at Courrèges, favored a minimalist approach. Slender, corseted silhouettes dominated the collection, adorned with tiny hook-and-eye closures that demanded close inspection to be noticed. This echoed his Courrèges aesthetic, where sexuality was explored through suggestive

Viktor & Rolf‘s Fall/Winter 2024 Haute Couture collection was a whimsical departure from the somber mood that dominated the previous season. This time, the Dutch design duo, Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren, took inspiration from their own past, revisiting the playful absurdity of their 1998 “Atomic Bomb” collection. The runway transformed into a laboratory of experimentation, showcasing garments constructed from geometric shapes – rectangles, triangles, spheres, and trapezoids. Think a boxy fuchsia dress resembling a soft cocoon, a miniskirt suit with shoulders suspended from a sharp trapezoid, and a multicolored coat resembling a chaotic stack of 3D squares. This playful

Charles de Vilmorin‘s Fall/Winter 2024 Haute Couture collection wasn’t your typical Parisian runway show. Forget elegant gowns and understated tailoring; this season, de Vilmorin transformed the catwalk into a theatrical stage for a fantastical murder mystery.

Stephane Rolland‘s Fall/Winter 2024 Haute Couture collection transported us to a bygone era of Parisian allure. Unveiled on the stage of the Salle Pleyel theater, the show unfolded like a black-and-white movie, a love letter to the “pure glamour and elegance” of the French capital in the 1940s and 1950s. Rolland drew inspiration from the city’s artistic spirit during this period, citing the poetry of Jacques Prévert and the evocative photographs of Brassaï. These influences translated into a collection brimming with a nostalgic romanticism. Evoking a Parisian shrouded in mystery and sensuality, the palette favored a sophisticated black and white,

The presentation itself was quintessentially Armani: a prompt start in a brightly lit,air-conditioned room with a runway shimmering with a pearlescent sheen.
