Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli, the heirs of the House of Valetino, wowed the audience on their Fall 2011RTW fashion show. Gorgeous models strut their walk on the runway with their Parisian inspired dresses. And when you talk about Parisian women, the major thing that comes into your mind is romance. Chiuri and Piccioli brought the Parisian vintage culture into the modern runway by making demure but sensual earth tone dresses and coats. Majority of the clothes were made of light and lovely sheer materials which showed some skin. The edgy and dainty coats however, managed to preserve the naiveté character of the models. Don’t we just love to have these au courant regalia on our boudoirs?

Alexander McQueen Fall 2011 Ready-To-Wear
The rumored Kate Middleton wedding dress designer, Sara Burton, showcased her latest collection under Alexander McQueen in the recent Fall 2011 Paris Fashion Week. The fashion show took place in Conciergerie, from where the disgraced Marie Antoinette was ushered to her demise. As ever, all the pieces from the collection are aesthetically pleasing. It brought the Eskimos, gladiators, and the Snow Queen altogether with enough feathers, fur, straps and tulle. Another interesting thing about this is the question hanging around after Burton included some bridal pieces- will she make a fashion history as the one chosen to make England’s newest royalty’s wedding dress?
