Giambattista Valli Spring Summer 2018 (firstVIEW)

Stella McCartney
Stella McCartney shone with her fashion show at the Opera Garnier, which was attended by the likes of Mélanie Thierry, Zara Larsson, Mary Charteris, and Poppy Delevingne, among others. The collection was romantic and delicate, with sheer dresses in pastel colors and prints in floral motifs cohabiting with tailor-like suits proposed for men.

Giambattista Valli
The Paris Palais de Congreis was the venue for Giambattista Valli´s show, which was inspired by the 1970s, and was aptly accompanied by John Lennon’s music. The boho-glam style dresses with irregular cuts and floral prints were the collection’s big hit. Animal print items were present as well, as were sequins — a must-have for the season.

APC
APC chose the Garage Amelot to show its new collection. The choices for men included a risky — and trendy — one-piece in green, dark blue, and denim. Meanwhile for women, the stand-out items were summer jackets in baby blue, yellow, and some prints. Polka-dots, stripes and flowers made for a very authentic and modern collection.
