INDTRODUCTION

Click clack - click clack, the sound of the haute couture

shoes floating down the catwalk, while the quiet wind magically gets coloured, striped, furry, silky fabric pieces to flutter with the models’ rhythm. That is real haute couture;

fine stitching in a dreamy presentation.

From the nineteenth century to the present day, the remarkable haute couture collections have been unfolded to trends and statement pieces we hadn’t seen coming. And yet the dreamy collections, just a few people can afford to get, will get most fashion lovers to hold their breath for a few

steps, looks or even shows, before it really hits us, what it is all about.

Every season at least 24 designers presents their eyes on the current colours, silhouettes and details that you cannot only

see with the baring eye. This season was no exception in Paris (& Capri).

From the sewing machines, to the fittings, on to the models,

then the catwalks and now in a presentation for L.K. Bennett Press & Marketing department, that is what this is

about.

& haute couture

This season’s haute couture has collected the best trends from the

spring summer and autumn winter two thousand and fourteen. It has

been made as far from wearable as possible and added the finest and

the most unimaginable elements for the collections.

We are talking prints, stripes, dots and flowers. Colours as flame red,

electric blue, black & white, silver and army green colour palette. All

combined with the winter fur, the late-dark-night shiny shimmer

elements and metallic combinations.

To name a few. The designers showed shows that look divine. From

Dolche & Gabbana extravaganza haute couture show at Capri to Karl

Lagerfelds presentation of the Chanel show which was all pared right

back down for a space in the Grand Palais that was simply a white

room accompanied by a virtual fireplace and a glass mirror over its

mantelpiece. Elie Saab told a fairy-tale story with the classic fairy-tale

dresses, but Giorgio Armani Prive showed of a catwalk that screamed

drama with the use of black, white and red. Maison Matin Margiela

was a bit more urban and stood out from the rest of the shows with

their signature styling. Opposite of standing out, Ulyana Sergeenko

showed off a glamorous but sharp collection. Pieces in see through,

shiny and metallic fabrics were shown in contrast with leather and fur.

Love, Christmas, anger, call it what you like, but Viktor and Rolf’s

collection were all about RED, nothing less or more than that colour.

All together this season’s haute couture was not afraid. Just dream,

live and fantasise!
