Marking the start of Paris Fashion Week, French brand ‘On Aura Tout Vu’ showed off its upcoming spring-summer collection in the capital. <br /><br />For this wedding, there are angels and demons, there is light and shadow. So we see this through a contrast of characters,” said designer Yassen Samouilov.  <br /><br />To a revisited version of the classic wedding tune, models took to the catwalk in mostly black and white outfits.<br /><br />In a collection based on contrasts, dark studs were woven into light fabrics, black ruffles adorned long sleek dresses, and backs and busts were translucent and glittered with sequins. <br /><br />For his collection, Giambattista Valli produced a sexy and colourful show faithful to his ultra-feminine style.<br /><br />The mood for his spring-summer outfits was decidedly floral, with a number of prints and embroidered patterns. <br /><br />Many skirts were head-turningly skimpy, some made of pieces of fabric twisted into a bow. <br /><br />The designer said the aim was to please clients of all ages, adding that he liked the idea of chic Parisians stepping out of the shower and into couture. <br /><br />“My customers, they start from 20, 21 years old, the couture customers, haute couture. So I wanted to give something really fresh, a fresh attitude, ageless, so you can go from young to less young, but I wanted to give this freshness through the silhouette, through the colours, through the attitude,” said Giambattista Valli. <br /><br />Luxurious touches included hand-painted flowers and jewels embroidered on fabric, while rich colour combinations such as sunflower yellow and white or fuchsia and ruby were inspired by Impressionist paintings.
