Paris Fashion Week 2009
Paris Fashion Week, A/W 2009: Balmain
Christophe Decarnin stuck with a tried and tested approach for his Autumn 2009 line which was shown at Paris Fashion Week yesterday. Working with his by-now signature rock'n'roll glam look, this collection included uber-short minis, body con shapes and a fair amount of sequins. He also continued the penchant for exaggerated shoulders, in fact, they were so extreme that two models nearly became gridlocked on the catwalk!

Runway Hair Gone Wild
It wouldn't be the runway without some dramatically wild looks. After all, fashion shows are meant to showcase avant-garde style.

Paris Fashion Week, A/W 2009: Miu Miu

Model and Mum Milla Jovovich has had a busy week in Paris. She has attended enough shows to tire even the biggest fashion editors and has had a killer wardrobe throughout.

Paris Fashion Week, A/W 2009: Alexander McQueen
Whilst many designers are playing it safe this year in order to remain commercial, but you can rely on Alexander McQueen to go to the other extreme and bring a bit of drama to Paris. He deliberately defied the credit crunch explaining to WWD, “This [economic] crisis isn’t my fault. I have to be who I am.
Paris Fashion Week, A/W 2009: Chanel
Chanel is always the collection I look forward to. I'm intrigued as to how Karl Lagerfeld will once again interpret trends in a very classic, chic way. This season he was inspired by Beau Brummell, who is widely credited with inventing the modern man's suit.
