Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13...Lakshmi

Indian model Lakshmi Menon (Women), after Alexis Mabille Couture, Paris, July 2012.

With the change of seasons upon us (and oodles of rain in the UK), it is the time of year when the mind turns to contemplating a holiday in the sun someplace warm over the Christmas/New Year period (Mexico, Cuba, Australia, Phuket, Argentina anyone?). I love the crisp, clear weather that heralds the change of summer into Autumn (the rain, not so much!) but after a few months of heavy grey skies, a holiday where coats, gloves and beanies are not required holds much allure.

Lakshmi's lovely, fresh white on white ensemble (broken up with blue sunglasses and a colourful necklace) is the perfect outfit for sightseeing, shopping and lunching someplace warm.

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13...Ulyana

Ulyana Sergeenko (in one of the pieces from her collection, I think), before Jean Paul Gaultier Couture, Paris, July 2012.

Some inspiration for those who are perhaps looking for a less traditional (winter) bridal gown....or indeed a dress for NYE or a glamorous party. It fits so beautifully for this coming season's  extravagant/baroque/opulence trend.

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13...Georgina

Serbian model Georgina Stojilkovic (Supreme), after Jean Paul Gaultier, Paris, July 2012.

It is now jumper/sweater weather in London but for those who live in warmer climates, a crisp white t-shirt, a pair of printed pants, slicked back hair + light-weight jacket = easy transeasonal weekend wear.

Recreate Georgina's look (kind of):

T by Alexander Wang classic t-shirt, Rag &Bone/JEAN The pocket tee, ASOS new classic t-shirt

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13...Elena

Elena Perminova, after Elie Saab Couture, Paris, July 2012.

AG Adriano Goldschmied denim tank dress, Diesel denim dress, Vanessa Bruno cotton and linen blend coat, MM6 Maison Martin Margiela oversized denim shirt or Topshop Moto collar tip denim shirt

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13....After Christophe Josse

After Christophe Josse, Paris, July 2012.

End of week hair inspiration: a thick black headband (inspired by ballet perhaps?) to hold back a neat, side-parted bun or ponytail. 

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13...Morgane

French model Morgane Dubled (Viva), after Jean Paul Gaultier couture, Paris, July 2012.

Happy (red) feet!

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13....Hedvig

The lovely Hedvig Opshaug* from The Northern Light blog after Jean Paul Gaultier, Paris, July 2012.

Like Natalie's Rag & Bone pants, Hedvig's sports-luxe tuxedo pants are brilliant for lengthening/slimming the leg.

Recreate Hedvig's look (kind of):

Tuxedo pants: Elizabeth and James Metallic Winston tuxedo pants, Tibi tuxedo pants, Bec & Bridge Piazza tuxedo stripe pants, Pencey Velvet stripe pants

Lace top: Acne Wonder lace-effect jersey t-shirt (I think this is the top Hedvig has on), Only hearts Sara's lace velvet trimmed top, or Isabel Marant guipure lace top

*who now has a tiny, beautiful baby bump! We are all so happy and excited for her :)

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13....Jac

Polish model Jac (IMG), after Elie Saab Couture, Paris, July 2012.

p.s. Have you seen the amazing illustrations by Danny Roberts for IMG's show package? So brilliant. Danny is insanely talented. Check out the video and illustrations here.

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13...Josephine

Danish model Josephine Skriver (Marilyn), after Giambattista Valli, Paris, July 2012.

Paris Couture Fashion Week AW 2012/13....Before Stephane Rolland

Before Stephane Rolland, Paris, July 2012.

Yesterday, when it was teaming with rain here in London, I saw 3 separate girls wearing army jackets/anoraks over dresses and thought they looked great. Inspired by their looks, I decided to post the photos of this girl and Jac (see post above) from couture in Paris....both wearing an army jacket in very different ways. If you don't already have one in your wardrobe, vintage/charity stores always seem to have a few in stock (there is one vintage shop in the Marais in Paris which always seems to have a couple available).

Recreate her look (kind of):

Paul & Joe Sister Spinner cotton-twill jacket, Topshop Army shirt jacket, Etoile Isabel Marant Alan jacket, Topshop khaki army jacket or Thakoon Addition Flower camo utility jacket (for those who want pretty + gritty)



Balenciaga bag, See by Chloe Bunny keychain, or  Gucci faux patent leather parrot keychain (he reminds me of one of the parrot characters out of Rio!)
