Avelon Catwalk Fashion Show Paris Womenswear SS2015

Dutch fashion brand Avelon isn’t a complete newcomer anymore. So after four start up years the label of designer Erik Frenken had reached a certain turning point. It was time for the next step, a fashion show, in Paris! At the Dutch embassy (seen before in the movie Les Intouchables) Frenken presented his summer collection. If denim and T-shirts used to be the label’s style before, this time it was a full on collection including skirts, trenchcoats, sweaters and evening dresses. All oversize and all given the label’s coolness and edgy, yet wearable touch. Heavy reptile leather played a big part and popped up on a pair of light silver pants, a red structured T-shirt top as well as on a black strapless evening dress. But it wasn’t all that heavy; sheer, fringed, sliced and pleated fabrics were introduced along the way too. Eye catching tribal inspired necklaces got the label’s signature copper finishing as the brand’s blue and black combination could be spotted on several designs (a sleeveless tuxedo and a pleated evening dress) too. It was a well balanced collection with just the right amount of tribe-references and modernity. Proof that Frenken was right to take his brand to another level. On a show schedule in between Céline and Saint Laurent, where it clearly has a place.

Viktor&Rolf Catwalk Fashion Show Paris Womenswear SS2015

Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren choose activewear as their inspiration, though worked it with their own irreverent touch. Several remakes of Olivia Newton-John’s ‘Physical’ were on the soundtrack and punctuated their theme.
The duo played on the idea with biker shorts and slouchy pants. Theye were paired with mesh tops in upbeat floral prints. These looks riffed on traditional shirting, but were ruched, tweaked and cut together in an asymmetric way.
Playful touches were subtle, as in the way Horsting and Snoeren reworked tank tops, including one with an additional cross strap that added a graphic touch and cutout to the casual staple.

Christian Dior Catwalk Fashion Show Paris Womenswear SS2015

On Friday the Dior show took place in a new show venue. Cour Carree where Marc Jacobs used to show his collections for Louis Vuitton was the place where history and future met. Raf Simons put his catwalk in the Louvre and by housing it in a mirrored silver box almost made it invisible. Within that box the area was divided into four salons and the floor had futuristic circles of light reflecting on them. The designs too had both historic as well as modern references. And we’re not talking about the fifties or the seventies here, no, Simons took us back a few centuries (18th century). He used references to historic undergarments and took on shapes of hips and sleeves from that same period. He kept things fresh and contemporary nevertheless. Looks in black, white and a splash of pink and yellow towards the end (during a bermudas and long jackets finale) were clean and breathed a chic kind simplicity. Even though colourful embroideries and rows of tiny colored buttons, highly decorated shoes, leather belts and chunky necklaces gave the looks a unique touch. Not to mention those bags, that will do oh so well next season.

Dutch designer Peet Dullaert presented his collection for the second time in Paris.And he continues to balance between boldness and fluidity, glassy accents and geometric lines, creating clothes with a contemporary reality. The designer used fabrics known for their volume, such as plissee, voile and tulle, shaping them to work closely in synergy with the body, yet still allowing free movement. The cut and weave of these fabrics provided a way to honour the female silhouette while creating an effortless construction.
