Luxe Magazine is unveiling the best of fashion thanks to a selection of outfits, straight from Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2017. Extremely sophisticated.

Giorgio Armani Spring/Summer 2017



Tuesday night at Paris Palais de Chaillot, Isabelle Huppert and Nicole Kidman were not simply there to please their dear friend Giorgio Armani, but also to identify on the podiums the looks which, reinterpreted by the couturier, could be theirs at the Awards ceremony on February 26th .
Their professional looks seem to scan each passage of this Haute Couture deeply Armani, tiny pagoda jackets stapled at the waist in shimmering jacquard or silk printed with roses and random stripes, pants with cord as elasticated at the ankles, asymmetrical sleeves, long Dresses with neosari inspirations or pareo with ethnic embroidery.
This season, "Orange is the new black" for the Italian, which animates this color chart - saffron, amber, mandarin, curry, burnt orange ... - muslin, crocodile and organza. In contrast, black slashes on a top stitched with shimmering ribbons raffia or a sublime straight pants sprinkled with sequins, knotted at the waist of a belt out of exotic brown mat. Refreshing !

Valentino Spring/Summer 2017



A minute of silence in homage to Franca Sozzani who passed away last December. The emotion is palpable on the faces of Anna Wintour and Valentino Garavani, who loved this great lady of Italian fashion, Editor in Chief for the Italian Vogue . A page also turns for Pierpaolo Piccioli, who delivered his first sewing collection since the departure of Maria Grazia Chiuri now working for Dior .
Invoking the Symbolist painting of Odilon Redon and the Action Painting movement, the Roman explores a palette - remarkable for its subtlety and strength - of false white (ivory, hemp, clay, mastic, ecru, glaze, porcelain). Infused roses, rare notes of cinnabar red. The line is pure, long, distended. The pleated column dresses, Watteau folded wool capes, the silk jersey heart bustiers borrow from the aesthetics of an Old Hollywood peplum. But they reinvent themselves, purified, stripped, lightened. The workshops of the house, virtuoso, embroidered with a flight of griffins a cloak of wool breakdown. Long-lasting applause.

Chanel Spring/Summer 2017



After admiring on the runway, a sheath completely embroidered with blue waves released from the workshop, one will not risk forgetting it. Faithful to the sketches of Karl Lagerfeld pinned on the board of his studio, the dress with blouses sleeves dotted with rhinestones and hemmed of marabou, the corolla corolla embossed and silicone veiled black guipure, the incredible model in tweed and chiffon gray dust ( "Pollution of Paris") pique of feathers, the dress of the final ruched of organza rose (carried by Lily-Rose Depp) give body, on the runway, to this French exception that is Haute Couture.

Jean-Paul Gaultier Spring/Summer 2017


The dressmaker tightens her tuxedo jackets masterfully before tying them the air of nothing, buttoning them or leaving them gaping on pigeoning bustiers splashed with sequins. By assembling ribbons, he shapes a scabbard and his corset with breasts in roses, extra jeans and jackets to the shoulders of quarterback. He sends Mexican skirts bouncing and others of peasant prints printed poppy flowers ... But attention: these asperities, Jean Paul Gaultier adore them. Then the trublion distills them in his accessorization with blows of yellow gold or poppy, of Sandals Pigalle way Skaï to the thick tray, of vinyl mouths. And with a jubilant cast of top-models with unreal bodies crossing seductive girls with reassuring roundness and a bride (the Irish Coco Rocha) dancing barefoot on the runway.

Dior Spring/Summer 2017


First woman named director of the creation of Dior, the Italian delivered Monday, a long-awaited haute couture runway show.
Between The Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare and the Demon Skin version Jacques Demy, the haute couture parade transports us into an enchanted parenthesis where the sylphides advance masked and whose long dresses embroidered with flowers graze With grace a carpet of freshly laid moss. Princess and hooded dresses are obviously at the Rendez-vous.
