Kenzo Fall/​Winter 2012 | Paris Fashion Week

The Kenzo Work­day–Play­ing it safe for their debut col­lec­tion, new Kenzo cre­ative direc­tors Carol Lim and Hum­berto Leon, revealed a sea­son right off the con­veyor belt. Dec­o­rated in bright, youth­ful prints, the tai­lored trap­pings of the Kenzo man came out to play. From fit­ted quilted jack­ets and laid-​​back sweat­shirts to the odd knick­knacks, sports­wear fueled the col­lec­tion. Hon­ing in on a relaxed aes­thetic that achieved a bal­ance of casual sophis­ti­ca­tion and nov­elty, Lim and Leon rep­re­sented the quirky sen­ti­ments of the clas­sic man.

John Galliano Fall/​Winter 2012 | Paris Fashion Week

Gang­ster Lore–Look­ing to the days of pro­hi­bi­tion for the inspi­ra­tion of his sec­ond out­ing for John Gal­liano, cre­ative direc­tor Bill Gayt­ten honed in on char­ac­ters, rang­ing from gang­sters and the law estab­lish­ment to Amer­i­can sports-​​stars. Empow­ered by the stigma of a gang­ster, the col­lec­tion was off to a strong start with over­size sil­hou­ettes ush­er­ing in the double-​​breasted suit and fine coats of fur. Turn­ing to ref­er­ences by J.C Leyen­decker and Nor­man Rock­well, the baggy trousers of America’s infa­mous king­pins were closely fol­lowed by Gaytten’s noto­ri­ous band of hench­men. Youth­ful, cold and belted in for a show­down with the law, the men­ac­ing were met with hues of army green, dress­ing the avi­a­tor jacket, a mil­i­tary jacket, com­plete with epaulettes and other heroic pieces. Caught in the mid­dle of the two fac­tions and bring­ing the show to a close were John Galliano’s sports heroes, reveal­ing a pol­ished evening wardrobe, sequined and gen­er­ally more fitted.

Louis Vuitton Fall/​Winter 2012 | Paris Fashion Week

The Fash­ion Land­scape–In search of the season’s inspi­ra­tion, Louis Vuit­ton turns their atten­tion to the life of fash­ion illus­tra­tor Anto­nio Lopez. A con­ver­gence of motifs of the sev­en­ties and eight­ies, the fall/​winter 2012 col­lec­tion comes together seam­lessly with suit­ing, much like their peers play­ing a sig­nif­i­cant role in the dynam­ics of the range. Found out­side tai­lored bliss that brushes upon double-​​breasted coats in camel, duo-​​toned suit­ing and pin-​​striped trousers, the renowned fash­ion house grav­i­tates towards a more com­fort­able expe­ri­ence with blan­kets on sale, price tag and all, being paraded as fan­tas­ti­cally draped coats with the Louis Vuit­ton mono­gram in plain sight. Tak­ing the fash­ion cap­i­tals by storm, from Paris to Tokyo, the Louis Vuit­ton col­lec­tion wraps up nicely with var­ied influ­ences that blend sar­to­r­ial genius with cre­ative success.
