Press Conference
At the first press conference, Julien Fournié showcased some of the designs which are feminine, but structured and dominated by white and pastel colors. I love the simple silhouette and the slit details.
Another designer to give the sneak peek is On Aura Tout Vu, which has interesting show concept with edgy collection incorporating gorgeous details; totally not for the faint hearted. Their color palette revolves around black, white, and striking red.
