Couture week - the memorable collections

Couture week has come to an end. Let's admire the memorable collections.

Fendi couture show is a bit of luxury and grace, and all this is under the motto of minimalism. There are fewer lace and decorations, the draperies are looser and deeper, and the fabrics are more and more weightless.

The popularity of Zuhair Murad has grown to the point where even from the front row, one is likely first to see the clothes through his neighbor's iPhone. After the show, Murad talked about the inspiration for the Belle Epoque, drawn mainly from the glory days of the French Riviera circa 1970. "It was a time of parties, beautiful holidays, and sunset colors," the designer commented.

This season, Elie Saab didn't hold back, indulging his passion for couture gowns so luxurious that it seemed every sequin on the planet was lavishly sprinkled on the 69 looks of the collection. "I wanted to convey a regal feel, a sparkle; I love the idea of grandeur."

The Jean Paul Gaultier show was hailed by many as the best of this couture season. And the alliance between hair stylist Eugene Suleiman and makeup artist Lucy Bridge captivated connoisseurs no less than the collection itself.

Robert Wun is no stranger to fashion, but he made his debut at this year's Fashion Week. This collection included a total of 20 images. The main highlight was a dress that looked splashed with red wine.

Italian Giorgio Armani practically held Venice Carnival; to be exact, he presented 77 variations on the theme of Harlequin. His new couture collection Armani Privè: combinations of bright colors with pastels and tight silhouettes with raffia collars and voluminous bows.
