Paris Fashion Week: Floral Prints and High Collars Grace Giambattista Valli’s Runway
It was back to the future on the Paris catwalks Tuesday as Chanel cleverly tweaked its back catalogue only for Saint Laurent to revive a look that some thought best forgotten. In what could be his last show for the label, designer Hedi Slimane — the man credited with the skinny black jeans look and making grunge glam — was judged to have given the brand “the finger” by parodying its founder Yves Saint Laurent's least glorious period. The hugely-influential Women's Wear Daily was scathing about his collection which went hell for shiny snakeskin leather for late 1980s vamp, claiming that it was drawing on a time when “Yves Saint Laurent was well past his creative prime”.

The fashion circus hits Paris Tuesday as the women's autumn-winter ready-to-wear shows come to town, with the industry deeply divided over the catwalk calendar and three major houses still without designers. Many are curious to see how the 34-year-old one-time refugee, who made his name with gritty oversized streetwear, will shake up the venerable label, once a favourite with Jackie Kennedy and European royalty. Three of France's major labels are still without artistic directors after a string of shock departures at the end of 2015 that saw Raf Simons leave Dior for “personal reasons” and Alber Elbaz pushed out at Lanvin.

Genderless fashion is the buzzword for many of today's top designers, highlighted at London Fashion Week by a string of androgynous touches on the catwalks. From Christopher Kane's heavy, dark, asymmetric tailoring to Burberry's parade of male and female models in military overcoats and aviator jackets, masculine styling repeatedly stood out in the women's autumn/winter collections. It's not just in London where designers are experimenting with preconceptions about gender and identity.
