At the top of Paris Fashion Week 2011 (II)

En esta ocasión, a much shorter post, I did not leave it for later for any specific reason, I have simply taken longer to digest the proposals of Maison Martin Margiela and I have delighted with the creations of Valentino.

Martin Margiela home

If Lady Gaga raised her head… that has been my first reaction when seeing the proposals of est paris Fashion Week of the maison, la verdad, I was almost taken aback, since I had the house in mind as a risky signature but preserving good taste. In this case it seemed to me a collection "charra” – in my town it means enough, tosca. Where for me there is an enormous contrast between the simplicity of one of the parts and the complexity in another area of ​​the garment.… The use of colors seems correct, quite attractive, although I consider it in general. an eccentric and unrepresentative collection -perhaps in two months the floripondio cardigans will sweep low-cost stores – but for a haute couture collection it seems more like an ornament than a design.

Great this last flower dress / Too many flowers for one garden

Valentino

En esta ocasión, Nevertheless, I have fallen in love with Valentino's proposals. I see them certainly similar to the ones I showed yesterday from Elie Saab, where classicism is the basis on which to work, but with a display of creation beyond shrillness. Honestly, it has always seemed more difficult to design something simple, synthetic or even minimalist but that turns out to be spectacular. In this case we cannot speak of minimalism, claro, but yes to recover the essence.

Great those transparencies and insinuating necklines but without going overboard / Too much flyer and I have missed more proposals in red (solo 2)
