Black and white tweed tailoring evoked a mood of elegance mixed with
laid-back chic, especially in cocoon coats and swing-back jackets
detailed with gold chains to match the handbags. Short shifts had a Left
Bank '60s air in PVC and leather, with tweed.
The monochrome mood was echoed in furs printed with Prince of Wales
check and polka-dot patent. The bright colour palette of YSL was
revisited in purple feathered skirts and coats in cobalt silk.
The finale parade of white silk, crepe, ostrich and satin - in halter
gowns and pleated 'palazzo' pants with white chiffon shirts - updated
Saint Laurent's eclectic exoticism for a new generation.
All the models had grey wigs which were teased into exaggerated
French pleat hairstyles, save for the gender-bender catwalk star,
19 year old Serbian-Australian, Andrej Pejic, whose blonde hair was all
his own.
They all looked the epitome of Parisian chic in belted trench coats,
smart tweed jackets and skirts, and tailored, pinstripe trouser suits
with pussy cat bow blouses, and all the right accessories. One model
appeared in a mink and tweed coat, another in a silver brocade tunic and
ski pants, trimmed with fur, and both pulling matching shopping
trolleys along behind them.
With more than 500 metres of hand-pleated chiffon forming the train, and
a bodice hand-embroidered in chiffon, tulle and pearls, the astounding
'wedding dress' which completed Sarah Burton's collection for the Alexander McQueen
label, shown in Paris, was fit for a queen.
