Paris Fashion Week Blooms with Defiance and Style: Highlights from the Spring 2024 Collections
Balmain designer Olivier Rousteing showcases a defiant and opulent runway display at Paris Fashion Week, just days after garments from his collection were stolen. The show pays homage to the iconic friendship between Gertrude Stein and Pierre Balmain, featuring a floral theme with rose-inspired designs. Despite the setback, Rousteing's collection combines traditional couture with contemporary touches, receiving applause from celebrities such as Cher and Kim Cattrall. Other highlights from Paris Fashion Week include Dries Van Noten's '70s-inspired collection, Courrèges' blend of past and future with a space-age twist, and Marni's debut in Paris with intricate craftsmanship and innovative designs.
