Mediaeval sensuality at Paris Fashion Week
Paris
CHRISTIAN Dior's creative director Raf Simons brought a "garden of earthly delights" to Paris Fashion Week on Monday, slipping models into luxurious chain mail in a couture collection inspired by mediaeval art and fashion.
Models, sashaying down a lilac catwalk in flowing silk taffeta gowns inspired by the Belle Epoque and cowl-necked cloaks in deep purple and black reminiscent of the late Middle Ages, would not have been out of place in an episode of Game of Thrones.
