PARIS: RUE DE MAIL F/W 09

A collection of odd contrasts (and some sparkly ones at that), Ru du Mail’s Fall 2009 runway show was a mixture of metallic tweeds, leather, silk prints and velvets for a very tailored party girl with a sophisticated edge. The collection hinted at the middle ages with a very updated, asymmetrical feel. One prominent trend seen throughout was the hood, which was worn several ways including over the head, unzipped and open, or draped in the shape of a cowlneck for versatility. The messy glitter makeup and thrown back hair in an undone ponytail hinted at a youthful clientele, but the design and construction of these little beauties were all grown up.

A long tuxedo jacket, tweed dress and metallic wrap look edgy when paired together without losing their classic uniqueness.
