runway: JOHN GALLIANO SS10 [PARIS]


John Galliano's spring 2010 show in Paris was staggeringly beautiful. Bubbles fell from the ceiling and popped into puffs of vapor. The runway was lit with red laser lights, creating a tunnel effect much like his also staggeringly beautiful fall 2009 show. This was Galliano's version of Sunset Boulevard (dialogue from the 1950 movie opened the show). "It came from a research trip to L.A.," Galliano told Style.com. "I went around the old houses of Hollywood and imagined how stars like Tallulah Bankhead, Lillian Gish, and Mary Pickford lived." Spring 2010's ubiquitous boudoir feel was present here, too, in sheer dresses and lace insets. The collection also included khaki jackets, beaded trenches, and skinny belted blazers.

runway: LOUIS VUITTON SS10 [PARIS]


According to WWD's Twitter page, "Grace Coddington whooped with delight at the first sight" of the Afros Marc Jacobs sent down the runway at Louis Vuitton's spring 2010 show yesterday in Paris. You'd think by now people would know not to be late to a Marc Jacobs show, but no. Guests were still milling about on the runway when the first model walked on; she had to push them aside to do her walk. "This is like ghetto fabulous!" Grazia exclaimed. Jacobs describes it as “Street clothes, embracing the hippie-cyber, tribal-punk world.” Aside from the Afros, models wore glittery anoraks, fringed shirts, satin corsets, and denim hot pants over lace-up leggings. None of the shoes were high. Rather, cowboy boots with feathers hanging off of them came with kitten heels, and moccasins were set on metal "peg" heels. But the handbags were truly special.

KANYE AND AMBER TAKE PARIS BY STORM


Kanye West is currently overseas for Paris Fashion Week and made an appearance at the the Roberto Cavalli opening boutique party with girlfriend Amber Rose. Kanye’s heart t-shirt is from Japanese brand Comme des Garcons‘ Play series.




I digg from head-to-toe.
Those Raf Simons kicks Mr. West is wearing are ridiculous!

They are really shaping up to be my new favorite couple. And Ms. Rose always has on a good shoe.

What's the verdict ?

CHANEL IMAN'S #1 FAN...


Instead of walking Yves Saint Laurent yesterday, Lily Donaldson took a seat front row — after the first look came out. The house's Fall face Naomi Campbell was also in attendance, and "hooted and hollered" when Chanel Iman appeared on the runway.

SESSILEE MIXES THINGS UP AT GIRBAUD

We were more than disappointed with Milan's all white runways. So we're glad designers are mixing it up in Paris. Sessilee Lopez opened up the Marithé et François Girbaud show yesterday morning, after walking Vivienne Westwood the night before. (We've also spotted Hollis, Arlenis and Chanel. And not that we don't love Jourdan, but one gorgeous girl of color per runway just doesn't cut it).

Anyway, the audience summed up the clothes on MFG's runway. Front row-ers channeled their best street style vibes mixed with a little bit of girly and lots of denim.

There was one dress we're pretty sure you could make out of a pillowcase.

KANYE WEST FOR PASTELLE

As a spectator of the recent Fashion Week in Paris, Kanye West quietly mixed in select pieces from his long-awaited collection, Pastelle. Turns out, he wasn't just there to take in some shows; he was there to put one on, too. Much of what he wore—including a notch-lapel blazer, a brown leather jacket (with detachable hood), and this shark fin-topped hoodie, pictured—comes from the upcoming line. Expect the clothes to debut this fall or earlier—the Web site says they're coming soon.
