Stella McCartney SS09
As the dust settles on Milan Fashion Week for another season we still have the excitement of Paris to look forward to. Paris Fashion Week kicked off yesterday but things don't get exciting until next week when big names like Stella McCartney and Chanel show their autumn/winter collections.
Today sees shows by Balenciaga, Nina Ricci and Balmain, one of the hottest designers around at the moment. With Balmain fast becoming a red carpet favourite were sure their show will draw in a few big names.
On Friday those lucky enough to be in the city will see shows by Issey Miyake, Christian Dior and Vivienne Westwood, who will have Pamela Anderson strutting down her catwalk.
More big names are out at the weekend with John Paul Gautier showing on Saturday and Karl Lagerfeld, Enamuel Ungaro, Dries Van Noten, Christian Lacroix, Givenchy and Sonia Rykiel all showing on Sunday.
There is more British representation on Monday when Stella McCartney will open the day. Joining Stella on day six is Giambattisa Valli, Viktor & Rolf and Yves Saint Laurent.
The following two days see more of the big names when we are treated to shows from Chanel, Valentino and Alexander McQueen on Tuesday and Kenzo, Elie Saab, Paul & Joe, Chloe, Hermes and John Galliano on Wednesday.
Things draw to a close on Thursday with Victoria Beckham's mentor Roland Mouret showing his RM collection and Louis Vuitton and Miu Miu also showing.
What an exciting few days we've got lined up!
