Beijing News (Reporter Qu Xiaoyi) On January 28, local time, the 2021 Spring and Summer Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week came to an end. Dior, Chanel , Valentino, Giorgio Armani and other brands participated in this fashion week without "audience". Although the fashion week has been launched online due to the impact of the epidemic, compared with the "scratch" of the 2020 Digital Fashion Week, fashion brands and designers have gradually become accustomed to digital display channels and found new inspiration and expression methods.
Wedding and tarot cards, romance and mystery alternately staged
This year, most luxury brands such as Chanel, Dior, Valentino, etc., are in the romantic and mysterious style, which is beautiful. For example, Chanel's 2021 spring and summer haute couture uniform series is themed "wedding", which is dreamy and beautiful, and very elegant. The model playing the bride appears on a white horse, wearing a white wedding dress and decorated with butterfly embroidery. Valentino is no longer as gorgeous and complex as in previous years. The design of this season is simpler. It uses woven fabric , fluorescent design, etc., and is very eye-catching with the model's "Hate the Sky" shoes. The bows, wrinkles, petals and other decorations emphasize the brand's signature aesthetic.
The anticipated Dior 2021 Spring and Summer Haute Couture series is still outstanding, but it seems difficult to surpass the surprises of 2020 Autumn and Winter Haute Couture films. This season's design draws inspiration from the 15th century tarot card patterns, combines the tarot pattern with advanced hand-made sewing techniques, and uses "raw lacquer" craftsmanship, watercolor depiction, etc. to reproduce the medieval retro feel displayed by the tarot card.
design master has returned, and two fashion shows have attracted much attention
For industry insiders, the three most anticipated fashion shows this year are Fendi, AZ Factory and Jean Paul Gaultier's 2021 Spring and Summer Haute Couture series. British designer Kim Jones brought his first fashion show after serving as the creative director of women's clothing in Fendi; French designer Alber Elbaz made his debut in collaboration with Richemont Group ; Sacai founder Chitose Abe appeared as Jean Paul Gaultier's first guest designer. Unfortunately, Jean Paul Gaultier finally canceled the haute couture show and postponed it to July.
This season's Paris Haute Couture Week, Fendi launched the first haute couture series led by creative director Kim Jones at Palazzo Bloniard in Paris. It is inspired by the novel by British female writer Woolf . The design combines Italian sculptures and is full of feminine power. It is understood that British men's clothing designer Kim Jones joined Fendi in September 2020 as a high-end women's clothing designer, replacing the late designer Karl Lagerfeld. The 2021 spring and summer haute couture series is Kim Jones' first big show since joining Fendi.
Israeli fashion designer Alber Elbaz held an online release in the form of a movie short film, showing a new series from personal fashion brand AZ Factory. This is also the first time that Alber Elbaz has officially returned after resigning from French luxury brand Lanvin. The new series focuses on daily wear and emphasizes sports fashion style, including tops, dresses, pants, sweaters, sports shoes, etc. Among them, slim dresses, tights, classic black skirts, etc. are very eye-catching.
alternative design is surprising, muscle armor and "fungal" skirt appear together
Compared with the average standards of international brands, the old fashion house Schiaparelli 2021 spring haute couture is full of imagination and creativity. Creative Director Daniel Roseberry brings all kinds of weird surreal elements, such as muscle armor skirts, hooded gowns decorated with halos, long metal nails, huge earrings, etc. At present, the design industry is increasingly emphasizing practicality and daily life, and Daniel Roseberry's design is refreshing.
is known as the queen of 3D printed . Iris van Herpen showed off the latest work "Roots of Rebirth" at this season of Paris Haute Couture Week. The design of this series is inspired by fungi in nature, and is avant-garde and alternative. The designer cooperated with the Marine Environmental Protection Organization to make environmentally friendly materials such as recyclable plastics. The 3D printed clothing is quite amazing. The complex folds are like swaying mycelium, full of beauty, and also convey the designer's thoughts on the relationship between nature and human beings.
