This week, FashionUnited readers get an exclusive look at three of the top catwalk presentations from Paris. Christian Dior celebrated quiet outdoor pursuits with an eco-aware collection while Off-White went back to college with an homage to Virgil Abloh's student days. Meanwhile Dries Van Noten teamed up with Christian Lacroix for a much-anticipated collaboration that blended the two designer's diverse aesthetics.
Christian Dior
Environmental awareness was the message behind Maria Grazia Chiuri's garden-themed showcase. Organic materials including burlap and raffia were adorned with illustrated botanical florals and foliage embroidery while traditional gardening outfits informed pieces such as utility playsuits and rustic straw hats.
Dries Van Noten
Joining forces with Christian Lacroix, Dries Van Noten's Fall/Winter collection fused his ultra-minimalist aesthetic with the cult French designer's maximalist glamour. Opulent embroidered, sequined and volumized pieces retained a practical, wearable sensibility while bold statement prints were interspersed among clean monochrome looks.
Off-White
Riffing off his college days in the "Cheese State" of Wisconsin, Virgil Abloh punched Swiss cheese-style holes into his streetwear-infused apparel and accessories. Soft tie-dye prints and performance trims offered a nostalgic reference to Abloh's youth certain to appeal to his millennial followers and fans.
