Fashion Weeks around the world

Paris Fashion Week
The attendees at the Paris Fashion Week had to stand to witness Balenciaga‘s boxy silk jackets in sci-fi inspired designs, after benches were removed. A little too much to bear for the glitterati present for the show! Elsewhere, some really adorable and ready-to-wear collections from designers Anthony Vaccarello, Fatima Lopes and Corrado de Biase enchanted the hungry audience at the 2011 Paris Fashion Week. The new spring/summer 2012 collections of Carven, Barbara Bui, Ann Demeulemeester, Rick Owens, Manish Arora, Balmain and Nina Ricci have also received great response from their audiences.

Milan Fashion Week
Fasion designers from Milan are reported to be investing zealously in gold. Perhaps it is not coincidental that the era most frequently evoked during Milan fashion week was the Roaring ’20s, seen through its sequined and beaded drop-waisted flapper dresses. The carefree, fun decade ended with the devastating 1929 stock market crash!

Mexico Fashion Week
The creations from the new collection of the Mexican designer Macario Jimenez during the Mexico Fashion Week being held in the in Mexico City have been appreciated all round.

Pittsburgh Fashion Week
The crowds at the Pittsburgh Fashion Week have been vowed by the cosmopolitan flair at display! Pittsburgh Fashion Week stood up to its big city promises that included bright lights and lots of color and vigor all around! The Monday opening night extravaganza saw  a standing-room-only crowd of 450-plus to witness the new Doncaster fashions collection.
