Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2017 

The most covered topic from the event was Bella Hadid’s reaction to her reunion with her former boyfriend The Weeknd. However, since the world of celebrities is much more complicated than we think it is, the assumption of a PR move is not excluded. While some people cannot decide whether to date each other or to deal with the break-up, Irina Shayk confuses media with her costumes that cover her “baby bump.” The rumors that Irina Shayk is expecting a baby with her boyfriend Bradley Cooper were confirmed.  Apparently, that news was not enough, thanks to the Internet we now know that “Gigi Hadid almost lost her dress on the stage” (Bazaar Russia). Even though the media will continue to exaggerate, we should not forget to focus on the main purpose of this show.

Saint Laurent

“She’s certainly not bourgeois or classic,” said Anthony Vaccarello about a ‘Saint Laurent Girl.’ “She has a huge respect for Saint Laurent, but not in the first degree. So I thought of her taking a vintage dress and cutting into it.” Gold lame, chiffon, asymmetric clothes, and miniskirts are what Saint Laurent was all about.

Louis Vuitton “I realize that I didn’t explore the sophistication and the more dressed-up part of Louis Vuitton that much yet,” said creative director Nicolas Ghesquière toVogue. A lot of experimenting is involved in this collection including tracing new and fresh looks instead of standard ones, the director is trying to change the look of the sleeve, neckline or material combination.

Christian Dior “The message, really, is that there is not one kind of woman,” said Maria Grazia Chiuri, the first female creative director in the history of the brand. “I wanted to overcome the traditional man/woman, tailored/casual, reason/emotion, stereotypes. And I precisely thought of a wardrobe, which is not just feminine, but feminist, where the distinctions between mind and heart no longer exist and thinking merges with action.” One of the main elements of the collection was mini bustier. Black and white were in dominance, the brand name on shoes and clothes, long lace dresses that reminded ofValentino, masculine trousers, and T-shirts saying “We should all be feminists” created the whole look of the collection. Though the collection was successful, there is still a lack of male’s perspective of perceiving femininity.

Chanel “This is technology. But with the lingerie, it’s intimate technology!”-this is how Karl Lagerfeld described Chanel’s spring collection to Vogue. Possibly, the theme of technology can be explained as a kind of a justification for the fact that he tries to keep the punch line of the brand while at the same time integrating novelty into his collections. That is the classic Chanel remains steadfast, with cotton material and its geometry (checked), but with a slight twist in colors, hats (caps), the geometry of some clothes is transformed into more modern lines. Finally, an evening dress is no longer a Little-Black dress.

Balmain “The Balmain Army has shed its armor,” said the creative director Olivier Rousteing to Vogue. “Whatever I do, even if I cover up my girls, people can say it’s vulgar. But this is what it is. I think it’s really chic, really French. It’s Paris how I see it.” The collection itself is full of colors and details here play a significant role in creating a sense of upheaval (aesthetic satisfaction is also excluded). Probably the main theme was “the jungle”, otherwise how can one explain tobacco, emerald green colors combined with suede and nappa leather. One thing we know for sure, there is a lot of work done (sinceBalmain expanded its’ looks quantity from 60 to 80 original looks), so, the brand is progressing with each collection.

Balenciaga

Certainly, most of the Balenciaga’s collection is very difficult to attribute to the category of practical clothing. At first glance, the collection itself seems very strange, but throughout the show, Demna Gvasalia smoothly goes from oversized clothes into the tight overalls, spandex, and latent leather. He adhered to a large bags, some of which can be difficult to be used often. Shoes are a separate symphony, as you see square-toed shoes are back in vogue, many famous brands had already had this shoes in their collections. For example, Yves Saint Laurent, Emilio Pucci, Christian Dior, Louis Vuitton, and many others.

Gucci

“You know, when you are in love, in a nightclub, but you are not in the right place, the person is not there?” said Alessandro Michele during the preview toVogue. While describing his collection in a confusing way, after seeing the show it ends up to be true. Who would not want to be in the wrong place, while wearing Gucci’s dress? Overkill? Just Right. If Prada has some Asian elements, then half of the Gucci’s look welcomes Asia. Embroidered dragons, fans, also worth noting safari elements, animals, and bright colors.

Moschino

Karl Lagerfeld once said, “Nothing scares me more than people with some doll collection.” Oh, well then maybe Jeremy Scott is not one of the designer’s favorites because Moschino was all about Paper Dolls. Jeremy Scott as usually made media talk about Moschino. A 2D collection of both clothing and accessories.

Max Mara

Hoodies, overalls, visors, bodysuits, sweaters were the core of the collection. Let’s not forget the grass print that reminds of tropics. Though the collection reminds of summer, the color choice, hoodies and sweaters throw us back to where we are now, autumn. As if we are recalling the summer memories, while having October on our calendar.

Dolce & Gabbana

Let’s go back to elegance, charms, and femininity. Ice Cream/Pizza/Cocktail prints, Dolce & Gabbana’s crosses, denim, corset, leopard, and of course military jackets. Taking risks? Maybe. There is no end to Dolce & Gabbana’s team’s imagination. Heels lighting up and crown? If we don’t think about practicality, then nice imagery. This show was a big party with funny dancers organized generally for the youth…rich youth. Agree?

Prada

While a breeze of Asian elements (mandarin collars) has created an assembled image, feathers gave place to the imagination. However, the only things that caught attention were belts, or maybe an accessory that is nearly present in every look. This is how Miuccia Prada described her collection to Vogue: “Instead of exploring the history of women, which I have been doing for a while, I decided to take care of now, the present, and trying to find elegance.”

Fendi

Fendi’s beginning of the show was a coincidence since it was again Gigi Hadid who opened it (she also opened the Alberta Ferretti’s show). However, the face of the collection totally differs from the previous brand…obviously. Here we have a lot of stripes, pastel, and brocade. Karl Lagerfeld along with Silvia Venturini mixed modern with an antiquated style. How well they have managed to combine different styles, judge for yourselves. Worth noting that bags were a single work of art.

Alberta Ferretti

The collection reminds of the movie ‘Bandidas’, with its’ grills, and color choices: eminence, steel blue, red, moreover, its’ combinations, in particular, leave an image of ‘daring women.’ Belts played a huge role in imputing ‘stiffness’ to models’ appearance. Chiffon goes well with leather. Belts accentuate the waist, revealing the silhouette. This is how Alberta Ferretti presents her collection to Nowfashion magazine: “With this collection, I have introduced passion into my fashion narrative. I followed my natural instinct, which led me to a vision of romantic femininity, a passionate womanly character, comfortable in her own skin, able to openly express herself with radiance and passion.”

I was leaving the best collection for a dessert. Most of you have seen Delpozo’s latest spring 2017 ready to wear collection, which was presented in New York, and I have few things to say about this news. Even though Delpozo’s collection does not have X-rated prints or provocative clothes, it has its own style of being impressive with pastel colors and well-chosen accessories. Josep font managed to maintain the image of the brand by referring to the art movement-impressionism, which in its turn depicts airy, ephemeral, elusive images. As for me, the bright orange is a sign of life, thus the choice of colors was quite harmonious.

In Simone Rocha’s collection colors ranged mainly between black, white, red and yellow – Autumn colors. In fact, the designer easily juxtaposed modern style and femininity in a single image. Regardless of the experiments with materials, their combinations were rather harmonious, she was able to create the shape of a woman with a simple belt around the model’s waist. Asymmetry of the image was also a key point of the show.
