Parisian charms at Louis Vuitton
Having previously explored Indian and Far-Eastern influences in his work, Kim Jones has now returned to his beloved Paris for inspiration in his Fall/Winter 2016-2017 collection for Louis Vuitton. A tribal-infused Parisian jungle look that is ready to conquer the streets, beret firmly placed on the head and monogrammed silver charms against the models’ bare skin.
Ceremonial piercings by Alexander McQueen
A return to the tortured punk look that in previous years provided some of the stand-out moments of McQueen menswear runway shows. The overall look was officer-like, but studded with facial piercings and chains joined with an ornamental safety pin. A meaningful detail that echoed the savage beauty of Lee Alexander McQueen’s collections, and rendered even more hypnotic by the piano music that provided the soundtrack to the show.

Statement chains at Prada
Prada embarked a voyage to the open seas with the Italian-sailor look, dripping with chains that look just as good around the wrist as they do dangled from a belt.
