Paris Fashion week was full into effect and here’s a recap of what to expect from the city that invented fashion. For Fall it’s not about minimal clothing, simplicity but the contrary extravagance and bold colors. As Hollyscoop viewed the collections of the top designers there is only one conclusion we can assert, designers dug deep into the History books or Disney Fairy Tale flicks for their latest creations.
Dior:

John Galliano definitely thought of the Renaissance period as his dresses were fit for any Shakesperian novel, or he probably got drunk while watching “Marie Antoinette” and was influenced by the movies costume.
John Galliano
For his own line John was thinking Robin Hood but minus the “men in tights”. You can say it was more like women in tights.
Chanel
Karl Lagerfeld was probably thinking about “Sleeping Beauty” when he designed his collection for the French line. We honestly can’t imagine Karl’s latest muses Lily Allen or Fergie sporting these gowns on stage.
Christian Lacroix
We are pretty sure Leonardo da Vinci’s “Virgin Mary” painting was an influence for his collection.
Givenchy
Designer Riccardo Tisci created a futuristic take on the amazons of Greek mythology for his Fall collection. Don’t know about the Greek mythology part but we did feel like we were on Broadway watching “The Lion King”.
