Louis Vuitton presented their fashion Fall 2010 collection on Wednesday, March 10, in Paris during the last days of teh Paris Fashion Week. The event took place in a courtyard of the Louvre Museum.
Entitled, “And God Created Woman,” after the 1956 film of the same name and backed up by the movie’s sound track, the show opened with a super décolleté black pinstripe skirt and corset.
Louis Vuitton fashion house hired veteran models to grace this show – from Victoria’s Secret model Adriana Lima of Brazil and French model-turned-actress Laetitia Casta to former Australian supermodel Elle MacPherson of Australia-all women whose physical attributes have acted as a disqualification for fashion show participation for so long.
Remarkable models of the collection were pleated skirts in three different cuts, the largest a dimple A-line, most brilliantly in hard leather. “We wanted from dowdy to sexy in the skirts and we achieved that,” said Louis Vuitton designer Marc Jacobs. And not at last place is the corseted, cantilevered, frill-edged balcony of the models seductively revealing womens’ breasts. The designer also sent out lots of curvy, big-button jackets cut with peplum hems that were the epitome of feminine gentility, wide A-line coats in boucle wool and some very charming printed floral organza dresses. Not that the rehabilitation of the embonpoint was vulgarly done. Marc Jacobs framed it more as a fresh, feminine, ingenue look, with hair scraped back into high, bouncy B.B. ponytails; clean makeup; and square-toed, block-heeled pumps trimmed with flat bows.
