Others try but few can achieve the pure conceptual genius that is Gareth Pugh. The fashion crowd was worried. Will he do well in Paris? Will his mind be understood? What better a city where not only art but beauty and imagination in fashion have been celebrated for centuries. The collection was white in the front and black in the back, pieces layered on top of each other in plastic coated eel. Victorian armor reminiscent of Camelot. Good vs. Evil, Past vs. Future. Conflict of Art vs. Commerce perhaps?

8 pm Fatima Lopes
9/27
For her 10th anniversary show this year’s collection mainly dominated by a color palette of red, white, black and yellow brilliantly reflected from satin and silk fabrics remained true to Lopes classic use of sexy alluring cuts exploring barely covered breasts, plunging necklines and eye grapping geometric designs. However, there was an air of sophistication a feeling of regality represented by flowing full length dresses, miniature top hats and flower accented head pieces crowned on each model. Knee length pleated halter dresses accented by squared fringe in checkered patterns were some of the more innovative styles on this catwalk.
