Céline Catwalk Fashion Show Paris Womenswear SS2015

Her ever so impeccably cool Céline designs got a little twist this time around. “In a way, I was open to everything—no preconceived ideas, very little of me saying no”, designer Phoebe Philo told Style.com. This translated into flapper dresses with fringy/fluffy bottoms, extra pockets, belts, topstitching and buttons on the jackets and the introduction of several colourful floral prints. Most designs were still clean cut and sober, but they had a little extra. Cut-outs on elbows, waistlines and chests looked elegant. As did the subtle accessories like necklaces and belts. Philo felt like experimenting a bit, but wasn’t ready to let go of her immensely popular clean chic signature. As a result the collection was a mix of two styles. Perhaps Philo could have said no a few extra times, but we sure appreciate the fresh new side of Céline.
