giambattista, karl, and alber (and a bit of baptiste)

Giambattista Valli (formerly of Emanuel Ungaro):
"An actress ought to be an actress, and a fashion designer ought to be a fashion designer. These are their own professions, so everybody ought to concentrate on one thing. I chose, in my life, to be a fashion designer."

There, it's been said.

In other news, Paris fashion week continues and I have to post pictures up for two collections. Let's start off with Chanel's barnyard couture. There was a very rustic, romantic feel to the whole collection. Also, it didn't hurt to have Baptiste in the collection, of course.

Now let's move on to Lanvin. I think this was a successful collection as it had a little bit of everything. Beautiful draped silhouettes, wonderfully sculpted pieces (some which seemed to be composed of paper), excellently executed embellishments (how's that for alliteration?), and a few sheers and pops of color here and there.
