Alexis Mabille Fall/Winter Paris Couture 2013

Couture fashion is all about extravagant, one-of-a-kind pieces that you can only dream of wearing. Alexis Mabille’s Paris Couture took that dream to fairy tale status.

As I watched the show, I was immediately overcome with a sense of airiness and fantasy. Models walked within gold gilded walls, surrounded by blooming pastel flowers and wore a range of pastel hues themselves. Of course with any fairy tale, there is a villain…an evil step-mother of sorts. But these villains were so fabulous, I kind of wanted them to come out on top.
