Paris Fashion Week

 New York fashion week just wrapped up here in the states but I personally always look forward to seeing the collections that come out of Paris fashion week. Not only is this the preferred venue for most of the very successful high end designers, it also gives a good indication of what will be trending in the next couple seasons in America.

Although these designers are no where near my ideal price point, one of my favorite past times drooling is over their meticulous craftsmanship and eloquently put together collections. Among my favorite collections for Summer/Spring 2015 were the legendary houses of Givenchy, Chanel and Valentino. Whether it was the bondage inspired, leather clad model herd of Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy, the Valentino power house duo of Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli with a whopping 79 looks, or the march for Feminine Feminist that characterized Karl Lagerfield's house of Chanel, these designers had me drooling by the end and parched for more.

Here's a list of my personal favorite moments
