Street Style, Paris: 20 final shots outside Couture Fashion Week
Photography by Peter Stigter See the street style from Paris »
In our last peek at the goings on outside Spring 2014 Couture Week, we’re treated to an appearance by Paris’s brightest star: La Tour Eiffel. Captured in several of today’s street style shots, the iconic tower has come out to bid us adieu on a cloudy grey day. Too much rhyme-y franglais? Anyways. There’s plenty of luxe to intake in today’s photos, from the countless furs to this Dries Van Noten coat to Lindsey Wixson’s PS11. But why put words to it when you can just voir it yourself? Hahaha.

Could the couture runways be any more bi-polar? Whereas yesterday’s recap brought forth a list of trends to watch in the coming months, today’s recap proves we’ll always be guessing.
The final day of Spring 2014 Couture Fashion Week in Paris started with everything in the junk drawer piled on one outfit at Maison Martin Margiela and ended with pale, barren latex at Viktor & Rolf.
The latter, worn by ballerinas drifting en pointe from one end of a square runway to the other, were sometimes printed with tattoo-like birds and ruffles. At the end of the performance, an ad for the duo’s new fragrance, Bonbon, revealed the scent housed in a pink bow bottle. The scent’s face, model Edita Vilkeviciute, wears nothing but painted-on pink bows.

Street Style, Paris: Chanel, Chanel and more Chanel outside Couture Fashion Week

Yesterday’s Chanel show went from the runway and beyond on the streets outside Spring 2014 Couture Fashion Week. Outside the Grand Palais, Karl Lagerfeld’s preferred Paris venue, Chanel was the label of choice for models, editors and just all around It girls striving for new and improved takes on those famed double Cs.
Model of the moment Soo Joo, fresh of the Chanel runway, bravely showed some leg in knee high socks, a black fur shearling coat, and sculpted Chelsea boots. Joan Smalls, happily fresh faced, looked the part of a stylish ‘80s rocker in a chic denim, leather and fur combo.

All it took was three taps on her Cartier watch in the direction of a publicist for Vogue’s Anna Wintour to get the Giambattista Valli show rolling the other night. There’s no time to waste at Spring 2014 Couture Week in Paris with so much to see—from Louis Vuitton’s new trunk-inspired watches to Roger Vivier’s limited edition shoes with diamante “disco ball” heels.

The elevated athlete trend, which came on strong during the Spring 2014 ready-to-wear season, has popped up at the couture level, most notably in lace, python, pearl and floral beaded sneakers at Chanel and Christian Dior. It’s symbolic of a new ease and youthfulness wafting through fashion at all levels.
Here are some other trends coming out of Spring 2014 Couture Week in Paris

Glitter, glitter, glitter! A closer look at the makeup from Chanel Haute Couture Spring 2014

The return of glitter makeup is a beauty trend we’ve been eagerly anticipating. While it may never again be as ubiquitous as it was in the ’90s (thumbs up emoji for the scented glitter rollerball glory days of Claire’s Accessories) whenever glitter comes down a runway, it’s GAME ON for the tubs of iridescent goodies we’ve been secretly hoarding for years.
As such, cue the beauty look from this morning’s Chanel Haute Couture Spring 2014 show. It’s glitter makeup at its best: a perfect mix of translucent silver, opalescent and rainbow-tinted pieces. Paired with a heavy cat-eye liner (courtesy Ligne Graphique de Chanel in “Noir-Noir” and Le Crayon Khôl in “Clair”) this glitter look is very editorial and totally easy to emulate. Basically, it’s going to be on our faces in a matter of days and no one will think we’re going to a rave.

Daria Werbowy stars in Balenciaga’s Spring 2014 ad campaign
Photography Steven Klein for Balenciaga See more of the campaign images »
Moody, botanical and a little bit Canadian: welcome to Balenciaga for Spring 2014. Toronto supermodel Daria Werbowy fronts the Steven Klein-shot ad campaign and it’s safe to say the images are A+.
Slated to debut in print next month, the campaign’s first image shows Werbowy at peace, leaning against a white wall engulfed in botanical vines. The others showcase the supermodel sporting the brand’s crop-driven Spring 2014 collection pieces. “I wanted to convey a sense of strength and knowingness,” said Balenciaga creative director Alexander Wang. “Daria is definitely not naïve.” With a gaze as powerful as hers, these ads will surely stop onlookers dead in their tracks.

Behold, the complete Peter Pilotto for Target lookbook
See the Peter Pilotto for Target lookbook »
A new year, a new high-low fashion collab to freak over. Just under a month till launch day on February 9, the Peter Pilotto for Target lookbook has been released in its entirety and is totally worth a drool. The 53-picture book (16 looks, 37 pieces) features the London duo’s signature prints, exaggerated volumes and cool-girl stylings done up in everything from cocktail dresses to rash guards. As has come to be expected with Target’s designer collabs, high-design really shines through, and the technicolour assortment seems just as vibrant in these photos as it does on the runway.

Miu Miu casts the latest group of bright young things for Spring 2014 ad campaign
Photography by Inez and Vinoodh See the Miu Miu Spring 2014 campaign images »
Miu Miu focuses its ever-prophetic eye on a foursome of rising actresses this season, casting Elle Fanning, Elizabeth Olsen, Bella Heathcote and the most recent apple of fashion’s eye, Lupita Nyong’o, in the just-released Spring 2014 ads. Photographed by Inez and Vinoodh against saturated shades of blue, purple and the brand’s signature deep red, the shots reflect Miuccia Prada’s latest take on pretty-meets-perverse, with each actress dressed to the hilt in bejewelled corsets, wool knee-highs, sixties showgirl boots and swing coats. Whether coquettish (Fanning), lackadaisical (Heathcote), pensive (Olsen) or regal (Nyongo’o), each actress translates the Miu Miu woman as well as has come to be expected from their buzzy on-screen roles. Following a long line of ingénues-turned-megastars like Kirsten Dunst, Chloë Sevigny, Katie Holmes, Lindsay Lohan and most recently Blue is the Warmest Colour leads Léa Seydoux and Adèle Exarchopoulos, we daresay the future’s looking mighty bright.

UPDATED: Miley Cyrus stars in Marc Jacobs’ Spring 2014 ad campaign
See the Miley Cyrus for Marc Jacobs campaign images »
Well, can’t say we didn’t see this coming. After almost a year of fashion dating, Marc Jacobs has finally made Miley Cyrus his girl a.k.a. the star of his Spring 2014 campaign. Always game for a wild one, Jacobs dressed the singer in fishnet for last year’s punk themed Met Gala, sat her front row at his fall show and most recently, featured her nudie bootie in his range of iconic “Protect your skin” T-shirts.
For Marc Jacobs’ Spring 2014 ad campaign, the designer casts Cyrus as a modern-day Christopher Columbus, perched in the sand in his Hawaiian pirate wares. Staring off into the distance, Cyrus wears a fairly uncharacteristic facial expression (and by that we mean no tongue), which falls perfectly in line with the earnest nature of her latest single, “Adore You.” Fitting, cause we pretty much adore everything about this pop-fashion meet-cute.

Tom Ford makes like Beyoncé for his Spring 2014 ad campaign
Photography: Left: Courtesy of Tom Ford. Right: by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images There are things in this world that you can count on. A good Kanye rant, Rihanna getting high and Tom Ford being Tom Ford. We can always count on him for a serious glamour injection, even in the midst of a polar vortex.
The shots for his upcoming Spring 2014 advertising campaign have just been released and as per usual, Ford strikes gold. At first glance, the shoot is a little reminiscent of late night dance party à la Chippendale’s, but once you get past that it’s smooth sailing. In line with his signature opulent throwbacks, the collection features textured body-con, leather, tailored power suits and disco ball shimmering minis. On the runway in London, models were practically dripping in sex and their dresses, done in slashed leather and strips of silk, are cheeky but strategically done. Classy never trashy.

Prada casts second black model for its Spring 2014 ad campaign
Photography by Steven Meisel So. Many Faces. Prada has released its Spring 2014 ad campaign and it’s hard to focus on just one beauty as a large model troupe “holds us in their collective gaze, looking forward in a united vision.” Explained via press release, the Steven Meisel-shot photos are meant to reflect the independent spirit of the collection, which this time around means mural-covered party dresses, illustrated furs and bedazzled sport sandals.
Glossy side parts, feathered headdresses and crowns frame a fresh crop of faces like Gracie Van Gastel, Maggie Jablonski, Julia Bergshoeff, Anna Ewers and Lexi Bolling. Continuing with last season’s introduction of the brand’s first ever-black model Malaika Firth, Prada adds to the diverse assortment with French-born Cindy Bruna, who most recently walked the Victoria’s Secret fashion show in November. Keep it coming, Miuccia!
