Paris Fashion Week Wraps Itself in Romance
March 7, 2006 | Senay TOPCUOGLU
The fashion frenzy gripping the French capital came to its peak over the weekend as Galliano and McQueen fired off showy bursts against the rich, classic backdrop of Valentino and Vuitton in the final collections of Paris Fashion Week.
The two British designers did not disappoint fans who have come to expect gasp-inducing creations from them.
McQueen drew on his Scottish roots for a multi-hued, multi-layered collection which he admitted was "less aggressive" than his previous forays into the shades and feelings of his homeland.
"The highlands are so romantic, so beautiful... and so much work," he said.
Galliano, ever flamboyant, softened his approach somewhat for his autumn / winter offering, aiming for what he described as a "romantic, ethereal" show that pressed home its point with subtle colours and faded images amid the attention-grabbing shapes of his styling.
