Paris fashion week this year saw a decidedly more toned-down Gareth Pugh.
Although I always love his more avant-garde stuff, this season im still impressed with this selection from FW 09. Like the Mulleavy sisters at Rodarte, Pugh moved his vision away from space robots down to a more earthy, apocalyptic look. Like many designers this season, we're seeing lots of leather pants, but Pugh distances himself from the pack by taking a baggier, fuller approach. And they look killer with those stunning platforms. Im totally obsessed with that, what is it, mink tail(?) coat. beautiful. And if i couldn't stress this enough, black is beautiful.
expect Beyonce to be seen in this as she's seemed to have been on a sort of Pugh binge lately...gag
