With Rihanna pulling attention at several shows, the week had no shortage of star power, but it was the collections themselves that gave people the most to talk about. ## Dior's garden turned into its own set piece Jonathan Anderson sent his Dior collection down a runway built through the Jardin des Tuileries, with mist rolling across the space and layered chiffon pieces that leaned romantic without tipping into costume. Python effect metallics running through the collection gave the softer silhouettes a harder edge, a combination that became one of the more talked about contrasts of the week. ## A possible goodbye at Saint Laurent Anthony Vaccarello's nearly all gold Saint Laurent collection read to many as a farewell note after a decade at the house, pulling heavily from the brand's archives. The show closed with a performance from Charlotte Gainsbourg and a standing ovation, the kind of ending that tends to fuel speculation regardless of whether anything is officially confirmed. ## Shape, structure, and a few true surprises Rei Kawakubo's Comme des Garçons collection reimagined eighteenth century court dress through oversized, deliberately deformed gowns in cotton and denim, forcing models into a kind of careful negotiation with the narrow runway itself. Rick Owens went in a different direction entirely, sending prismatic, tentacle like pieces down an inclined runway for an effect that read as closer to sculpture than clothing. Over at Maison Margiela, Glenn Martens kept pushing at the edges of conventional dressing with toeless boots and deliberately gaping shirts, while Issey Miyake closed its show with a five minute interpretive dance introducing air responsive garments built from light jackets and windproof nylon. Add in Miu Miu's run of celebrity runway debuts, Balenciaga's shirt hoodie hybrids under Pierpaolo Piccioli, and Schiaparelli's jazz club mood piece of a show, and the week added up to one of the more ambitious stretches Paris has put together in recent seasons, heavy on ideas as much as on clothes. --- Originally published by Life Channel.
