Alexis Mabille brings a fairytale touch to haute couture

The French fashion designer unveiled an autumn/winter 2016-2017 haute couture collection in Paris, Tuesday, July 5, with the theme “Pastel Vibrations.” Alexis Mabille brought a fairytale touch to this soft and romantic color palette, showing a line-up of princess-worthy gowns and ensembles.
