ON THE CATWALK...

Magdalena Frackowiak, Izabel Goulart, Julia Frauche, Diana Moldovan, Natalia Siodmiak, Xiao Wen, Ming Xi and Larissa Hofmann flew the flag beautifully for a performance in 5 tableaux.

Pastels & Denim: lace and an array of pastels mixed with highly designed, patched, frayed denim pieces. Refreshing and bang on-trend.

Dark punk: a punk and futuristic blend, structured forms that are sometimes extravagant, asymmetrical effects, mesh and lacquered origami, leather and vertiginous cutouts. Terribly sexy and contemporary.

A taste of the summer in a 3^rd, seaside tableau with geometric forms and a sporty, structured spirit, all in neoprene and mesh in which black mixes with touches of primary colours.

Romantic: exceptional lace, light tulles, a delicate harmony of whites, greys and deep red. Evanescent and sensitive.

Natalia Vodianova for Etam: Soaring feathers, ethnic beads, the shock of dull colours brought to life by electric hues... inspired by a visit to Peru, the magnificent Natalia Vodianova has delivered a highly successful collection.

An eclectic selection of international artists

BREAKBOT, CASSIUS, KAVINSKY and 3-D FROM MASSIVE ATTACK, the Bourse de Commerce vibrated to the electro-pop sound of the French Touch. American hip-hop artists AZEALIA BANKS and EVE set the catwalk alight with their frenzied flow.
