Front Row VIPs Were Ooh La La At Paris Fashion Week

BeautyStyle

Socialites, actresses, and editors wore a week’s worth of their Sunday best at the Haute Couture collections in Paris.

Aside from the sleeves, which she apparently has no use for, Anna Wintour’s jacket turned out to be really useful as she re-purposed it for the Chanel, Giambatista Valli, and Giorgio Armani Prive shows.

Olivia Palermo’s mismatched purples are almost as messy as her surroundings. (What’s with the animals who threw their print outs all over the place?)

Gavin Rossdale’s lovechild Daisy Lowe was all grown up at Ellie Saab in a red gown. Cate Blanchett was looking a little MOB (mother of the bride) at Armani Prive. And speaking of mothers, Suri certainly wouldn’t be caught dead in something like her mom’s boring black blouse and capri pants.

I’m not really familiar with Gaia Weiss, but I’ve gotten to know her cleavage pretty well today.

Most showed up to the Chanel show in black and white. Alexa Chung went frilly, while Poppy Delevigne went with a hat and Ana Girardot went without a bra.

Milla Jovovich, Caroline De Maigret, and Kiko Mizuhara all took a much more casual approach.

Diane Kruger chose an asymmetrical white gown while Astrid Berges-Frisbey and Elle Fanning wore frilly, age-appropriate cocktail dresses.

This group deviated a bit from the dress code, with Astrid Munoz giving some Housewife realness in leopard, Vanessa Traina and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld looking a little club-y, and Caroline Sieber in a see-thru gown. If Troop Beverly Hills had been about a Boy Scouts rip-off, Baptiste Giabiconi would have been a great male Phyllis Nefler in his revised Wilderness Boy costume.

Greek shipping heir Eugenie Niarchos kept it simple with a shell purse. Lee Radziwill and Bianca Brandolini D’Adda each worked orange, and Daphne Guinness—who is divorced from Eugenie’s uncle (awkward)—decided on a plastic, two dimensional hat.

Karolina Kurkova wins today’s unofficial competition. Because I don’t like women in skirts and the best thing is to wear pantyhose or some pants under a short skirt, I think. Then you have the pants under the skirt and then you can pull the stockings up over the pants underneath the skirt. And you can always take off the skirt and use it as a cape. So I think this is the best costume for today, you understand.
