What a way to start off the Festival of Fashion Design! With local designers showcasing their talents, you were kept wanting more. As the day progressed all eyes were on the Jean-Paul Gauthier show, I couldn't have asked for more. With the style ranging from nautical influences to the 60's he kept the audience asking what's next. With James bond music playing at the intro of the show you were already for the adventure. He started the show with looks straight out the original James bond movie, keeping it classy and original. After that we moved on to tribal looks ranging from native influences to Tibetan tribes. As the show progressed we saw everything from Avant Garde Cirque de Soleil to Sophisticated business women of today. The show was presented as the finale for the first day of the festival, and what a Finale it was. With like a virgin playing as the last look came down the runway we could only hope that it wasn't end. Throughout the show I realized that there were women's wear influences for the men's wear which I thought to be quite sophisticated since it's usually the women's wear that has the influences of men's wear. Basking in the energy of the show afterwards was an experience in itself, mingling among the fashion heads like myself kept me intrigued for what day was going bring! All in all Jean-Paul Gauthier showed us why he is considered a great! Stay tuned for a post on Day 2 of the Festival of Fashion Design!
