Armani Prive Fall 2013 Couture - Paris Couture Week

Think of the name Giorgio Armani and what it conjures.  Gray, austere, superefficient pantsuited tailoring for the professional woman would be one likely image.  Well, scrub that.  This evening, he delivered something wholly opposite: softness, sensitivity, delicacy, romance - a sustained tour de force of utterly lovely dresses.  Was it referencing the thirties - a vision spun around the sort of soft-focus portraits of aristocratic debutantes Cecil Beaton might have photographed?  "Maybe, roughly thirties," he (Armani) shrugged, backstage.  "Perhaps that was the  most beautiful time for portraying women.  That's what I wanted; just to make women feel beautiful." - vogue.com

Alexis Mabille Fall 2013 Couture - Paris Couture Week

"Alexis Mabille claimed the nineteenth-century Italian painter Giovanni Boldini as inspiration for his couture collection this season.  Other times Mabille's evocations of the Victorian era came off with more of a thud. "It's a play on the past, but twisted in a modern way," the designer said" - style.com
