HAIR: Guido Palau MAKEUP: Tom Pecheux OVERALL TAKEAWAY: A stroll through ’20s Shanghai’s fashionable crowd This season, the designer took us to Shanghai in the ’20s (with a few hints of the ’30s and I.M. Pei), complete with opulent fabrics, patterns and cuts draped languidly on models. From a week in which the buzzword was glamour, we finally got the real deal. The Eastern influence kicked off subtly, with a silk wrapped blouse in cream paired with black slim trousers. From there, the looks deepened into the theme, adding richer fabrics and prints with art deco jade accessories. The scene-stealers were, by far, the evening gowns. Liquid, glossy silk, velvets, and embellished fabrics paraded out, each look topping the one prior. A black fluid satin bugle-bead embroidered dress with liquidy-silver trim was a showstopper, as was the finale: a beaded dress with a metallic hood. Accessories played a major role in this collection, from the jade jewellery to the art deco accents, to the I.M. Pei glasses. The red shoes added a nice accent of color, while the headgear appeared in the form of turbans, cloches, and the aforementioned hood, which resembled medieval armour. Lauren toed the line between inspiration and nostalgia, sending out simple looks with elegant cuts draped in chinoiserie prints.
