Paris Fashion Week, Autumn/Winter 2008: Balmain

February 26, 2008

Balmain designer Christophe Decarnin certainly knows how to make a woman look and feel her sexiest. I can't help but think that his Fall '08 collection has hints of Roberto Cavalli in it. Animal prints dominated, as did metallics and sequins. Floor-length, one-shoulder frocks took center stage, thanks to slits that creeped up for days. Leather jodhpurs and fringe moccasins added an eclecticism to the mix. Christophe seems to really appreciate legs, so ladies who love theirs should take note. Hey, if you've got them, flaunt 'em!

The only downside to this collection is the price $$$. The boots alone I want are $1500. When I was in Paris this spring I saw the summer collection at Printemps and I was gagging over how expensive it was.

No way this doesn't look like Roberto Cavalli at all if anything it reminds me of Gucci era Tom Ford. I'm totally buying those fringe boots.
