The Fall 2024 season of Paris Fashion Week remains in full-swing. Each and every day, there’s a guaranteed thrill from the designers and fashion houses featured on the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode’s jam-packed schedule. Day five of PFW and we’ve already bared witness to Christian Dior‘s Maria Grazia Chiuri paying tribute to her predecessor Marc Bohan and watched Anthony Vaccarello double down on the sheer trend. Chemena Kamali has since made her highly-anticipated (and highly-praised) debut as Chloé creative director while Rick Owens‘ otherworldly collection left us in awe.

In the UK, Mother’s Day takes place Sunday March 12, and we here at theFashionSpot are putting together a carefully-curated Mother’s Day Gift Guide series ahead of the big day and in preparation for Mothering Sunday within the United States on Sunday May 12. Mark your calendars!

For all our stateside and global readership, you’ve still got a big chunk of time to get organized – but thankfully preparation is the key to success. Therefore, it’ll pay to do your due diligence early in order to give your mother/grandmother/mum-to-be, a truly wonderful and love-filled Mother’s Day.

First up in theFashionSpot’s Mother’s Day Gift Guide series is some beautiful beauty products from Dior Beauty. Scroll on down for our first installment and a rather delightful selection:

Dior Addict Lip Glow in 001 Pink:

IMAGE | DIOR.COM

A new couture case, a formula unique to Dior made with natural-origin ingredients infused with cherry oil, and shades to suit all skin tones: the iconic Dior Addict Lip Glow lip balm has been reinvented with a texture that is just as always sensorial for lips that are both more beautiful and preserved from dryness. ($40.00)

Rouge Dior Lipstick in 100 Nude Look & J’adore Les Adorables Hand Cream:

IMAGE | DIOR.COM

Rouge Dior, the Dior makeup icon, is housed in a contemporary new case and comes in a wide range of shades, it’s long-wearing and is infused with hydrating floral lip care for 24 hours of comfort. ($49.00)

The 1st J’adore Les Adorables Hand, Nail and Décolleté Cream has a fresh, melt-away texture and comes in an on-the-go format with rounded shape. Formulated with 97% natural-origin ingredients and infused with jasmine wax and cotton extract, this J’adore cream enhances the skin, leaving it feeling soft and comfortable.($58.00)

Capture Totale Le Sérum is the 1st youth-revealing Dior anti-aging serum that visibly improves skin firmness and corrects the major signs of aging: expression lines, wrinkles, visible pores, unevenness, loss of elasticity, radiance, firmness and plumpness. ($125.00)

Miss Dior Parfum & Lip Glow Oil in 001 Pink:

IMAGE | DIOR.COM

The legendary Miss Dior evolves into a composition that blends floral and fruity accords with voluptuous notes of ambery woods. In homage to the jasmine of the original 1947 Miss Dior perfume for women, Francis Kurkdjian chose a jasmine with rare facets, obtained through a special extraction process. The reinvented fragrance reveals a surprising rosy and fruity note that contrasts with the woody tones and is brightened by hints of mandarin. ($110.00)

This Dior lip oil teams an intense lip care formula with a natural, flattering color finish for an ultra-luminous result. Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil adapts to all lip colors to bring out their rosy glow. ($40.00)

Everyone loves a flashback, right? Here at theFashionSpot, ahead of us descending upon each fashion capital, we’ve been flashing it back a whole decade to the Fall 2014 season of New York, London, Milan and now Paris Fashion Week.

Just like in the other cities, the fashion landscape was a whole lot different within the French capital. Raf Simons was the creative force behind Christian Dior, Hedi Slimane was heading up Saint Laurent, Riccardo Tisci was still proving every inch his worth at Givenchy and Alexander Wang presented his third mainline collection for Balenciaga while the much-loved Phoebe Philo was still winning us over at Celine.

John Galliano’s eponymous label was a fixture on the PFW schedule (designed by Bill Gaytten), as was Haider Ackermann whose collection showcased the strength of the Colombian-born French designer’s innate design talent and impeccable skill. Anthony Vaccarello’s very own namesake creations were on full display too. The Fall 2014 season also bestowed upon us the late Karl Lagerfeld’s unforgettable supermarket spectacle at Chanel and Sarah Burton’s Alexander McQueen collection felt like a magical and mythological fairytale was coming to life before our very eyes.

UK Harper’s Bazaar March 2024 : Maisie Williams by Agata Pospieszynska
IMAGE | HARPERSBAZAAR.COM/UK

You just have to give credit where credit is due and British Harper’s Bazaar is one of those magazines who rarely sets a foot wrong. Under the tutelage of Lydia Slater, the magazine continues to go from strength to strength. Just last month, the British fashion glossy commenced the new year with a wonderfully chic Julianne Moore cover and is moving steadfastly forward the way it means to go on for March 2024. To coincide with the release of The New Look on AppleTV+, Maisie Williams fronts the issue and is a darling in Dior, dressed a laced look from Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Spring 2024 collection. Captured by photographer Agata Pospieszynska and with Charlie Harrington on styling duties, the British actress serves grace and poise in the elegant cover image.

“In love with this, the best Maisie Williams has ever looked,” shared kokobombon.

“Perfectly on-brand and very visually appealing. This is certainly Maisie’s best look in print yet!” echoed aracic in complete agreement.

Also very much a fan was forum member MModa, pointing out: “This cover will look beautiful on the store shelves!”

“Always love when British Harper’s Bazaar serve us these regal, elegant and poised cover images. The cover shot itself is flawless, love the coloring, the laced Christian Dior dress and even the lily used as a prop. Also have to give a shoutout to the art direction which complements the image beautifully…” approved vogue28.

Vogue China February 2024 : Du Juan by Margaret Zhang
IMAGE | WEIBO/VOGUECHINA

Is editors photographing the front covers of their respective magazines about to become a big trend in 2024? One month into the new year and we’ve already bared witness to Ina Lekiewicz getting behind the lens for Vogue Poland and now Margaret Zhang at Vogue China follows suit. Zhang has previously photographed the Chinese fashion title’s December 2022 covers and it’s a repeat performance for February 2024. In the process, Zhang makes Du Juan cover girl, which marks the Chinese model’s 20th Vogue China cover appearance since her first back in September 2005 for the magazine’s debut issue. Styled by Vivienne Sun in one of Christian Dior’s iconic bar blazer jackets, Du Juan rides a motorcycle through the city of Shanghai in the cover shot.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Looks like an outtake from a 2010 Estée Lauder shoot,” critiqued Urban Stylin critiqued the moment the cover struck.

“Could it be more amateurish?” asked OllieJE.

Also far from impressed with Zhang’s latest was forum member Phuel: “She’s a sh!t photographer with absolutely no understanding of narrative flow nor storytelling. Would love to be a fly on the wall and witness what the team thinks about her amateur work. What an insult to start the Lunar New Year off with!”

“What a gigantic mess!” shrieked kasper.

“Criminal to think Margaret Zhang had Du Juan and this is the end result! Some of Du Juan’s Chinese Vogue covers in the past have been flawless but this is amateur and lackluster beyond belief. There’s just not one redeeming quality to this – even that stunning Christian Dior jacket looks out of place,” voiced vogue28.

The Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week collections came to an almighty end last night, subsequent to John Galliano staging his applause-inducing Maison Margiela Artisanal showcase spectacular, which was truly something the fashion crowned hasn’t witnessed for some time. Boating insane storytelling, drama and theatrics – Galliano’s Dior is truly well and truly alive at Margiela.

Flashback to Monday and it was Daniel Roseberry at Schiaparelli kick-starting the couture celebrations, reminding his A-list audience of the power of fashion. As Roseberry dug even deeper into the rich and surrealist Schiaparelli DNA, models were decked out in the designer’s hi-tech couture looks of XL shoulders, dramatic bodices – often covered in micro chips and old cell phones. At Christian Dior, guests digested Maria Grazia Chiuri’s take on classic Dior shapes heralding the essence of femininity with new interpretations of A-line skirts, cocktail dresses and the iconic bar jacket, shown inside a set envisioned by artist Isabella Ducrot. Balloon, draped and bow dresses were taken to the extreme at Giambattista Valli while ethereal tulle, bows, pinks and tweed were on the agenda at Virginie Viard’s ballerina-inspired Chanel showcase.

This season marked 19 years since Giorgio Armani first debuted his Privé collection, with the king of Italian fashion putting his ateliers to work to present a collection full of exquisite fabrics and sophisticated glamour. Simone Rocha, as guest-designer of Jean Paul Gaultier this season, paid homage to the codes of the house: corsetry. The Irish designer brought her folkloric romanticism to JPG couture with Rocha’s signature shades of blush, red and black scattered throughout. At Viktor & Rolf, never expecting the unexpected, models walked the runway in a black and nude uniform of distressed and deconstructed creations. Titled ‘Le Salon’, Pierpaolo Piccioli’s latest couture collection for Valentino was an ode to the essence of haute couture itself – but with a modern twist of masterful color-blocking. From glistening suits to crystal-encrusted accessories, Kim Jones at Fendi married futurism with Karl Lagerfeld’s vision for the luxury Italian fashion house.

What did theFashionSpot’s very own army of fashion critics think of Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week’s Spring 2024 season? Scroll further for the hits and misses:

MISS | Valentino

The Hits & Misses of Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week Spring 2024
IMAGE | IMAXTREE

“Most of this looks awkward and difficult to wear.” [Alquimista]

“The fabrics are so stiff and heavy, they are on the verge of cardboard. The oversized blazers are a tired trend.” [yslforever]

“I absolutely loathe Pierpaolo Piccioli’s work. He started out so strong solo at the house, but he very quickly ended up in this particular rut that he refuses to get out of. Personally, I find his use if color garish. I do not think he is a master colorist. I also find it really obvious how lazy the actual design work is. Most of what he puts out now for couture is like a big, boxy, solid, 2-dimensional oversized item like a car coat and it’s so basic and there’s no detail work to speak of. So boring. So cheap.” [lookatme]

“This is Haute Couture! There’s an allure and the quality of those fabrics screams at you in a way that quiet luxury couldn’t! Armani put that atelier to work!” [Lola701]

“This is a masterclass on how to be a couturier. The perfect cut and finish, the restrained excess, the contrast between melancholic and lady like, the use of the right fabric and the perfect fit. These are pieces that will be worn for years.” [Urban Stylin]

“I sat and watched the live-stream in absolute awe! Absolutely flawless from start to finish, and another collection in which cements Giorgio Armani a cut above the rest. So many delightful creations here, and so many sublime details and fabrics. The fluid metallic fabric Armani uses is heavenly. Ugh, I could rave about this collection until the cows come home…” [vogue28]

“Sometimes, I feel like Mr Rolland’s women are just drowning under all that fabric. The volumes are always too much and if it’s not the volumes, it’s the impossible train.” [Lola701]

“Really this is just a series of couture sacks and smocks. He’s never been the most compelling when it comes to construction, but this is on another level.” [Cocteau Stone]

“Why is Jones’ Fendi so American in its sensibility? This could be Isaac Mizrahi couture. It lacks that sense of fun and humor both Karl’s and Sylvia’s collections had. It’s very textbook couture, overly precious and too serious for an Italian brand.” [avonlea002]

“Aseptic and lank. Kim just doesn’t work well at Fendi. There’s no fun and joy in this at all, just boredom. Very inoffensive so it’ll cater itself well to the mindlessness of the ‘fash pack’ and all the ‘journalists’, but where’s the actual soul?” [Cocteau Stone]

“F a b u l o u s.” [helmutnotdead]

“They struck gold with this show. Excellent.” [LadyJunon]

“It’s always the ones you expect absolutely nothing from who comes up with the good stuff! This is one of the times where their stunt actually works so well because attached to a narrative, a design and technical challenge!” [Lola701]

MISS | Jean Paul Gaultier

“Extremely cheap and unimaginative.” [lookatme]

“It’s just so frou frou. Half looks like like an audition for Dior, the other half a Gaultier Pinterest board. This just isn’t interesting or challenging. Simone Rocha should’ve looked at his mid-90s and early-00s collections a little more. The whole cone bra and corset sh*t is getting stale fast.” [gallianostan]

“I really don’t understand why Rocha did not send out to the runway a silk draped top with a pair of embroidered jeans and high satin heels. Jean Paul Gaultier is much more than a f*cking corset.” [helmutnotdead]

MISS | Chanel

“Such a waste of talented seamstresses.” [couturefan]

“The white tights are a poor choice. They’re so unflattering and even though the proportions of these looks are better than her usual outputs, it’s still so lackluster. Not an ounce of joy or fun to be had, let alone movement, which is the premise of Coco’s design beginning.” [Cocteau Stone]

“Chanel Haute Couture used to be a dream… so sophisticated, elegant and such high level of craftsmanship that you wanted to get a piece of. Now it’s just an extension of RTW with more embellishment and more fabric.” [tourbillions]

HIT | Elie Saab

“I like Elie Saab. He is an institution and I have a real respect for this kind of very client-oriented type of couture. The collection is predictable but also quite beautiful. The quality is screaming through the screen!” [Lola701]

“Really beautiful.” [liberty33r1b]

“Elie Saab has come to be a couture highlight for me, and this collection is no exception. From start to finish, each look just appears so perfectly executed, crafted and designed. The fabrics, the color palette, the confidence of Saab himself – all absolute perfection.” [vogue28]

MISS | Homolog

“So many references from other designers. Why are there so many unknowns showing during Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week?” [tourbillions]

“Homo-log out of this couture week ASAP!” [Kanzai]

“What an odd name for a brand. Very D-list. Like a ‘couture designer’ friend that some reality star/housewife have on retainer thinking they’ve made it are IT. Nothing wrong with that, but why present at couture when you are not that?” [Cocteau Stone]

MISS | Ronald van der Kemp

“An expensive made-to-measure Parsons graduation show.” [jeanclaude]

“The magic of RVDK unfortunately died when he started to have shows. I remember those magnificent lookbooks, super edited but also very strong! RVDK is a seasoned designer and so, it’s a pity to see the kind of collections we have to attach to his name. Nothing is working here. And neither the casting or the presentation are helping his case!” [Lola701]

“Runway presentations just don’t work for him. A tighter edit or styling with the looks would have helped a lot too. Needs a better balance to create some more tension between them all.” [Cocteau Stone]

MISS | Tony Ward

“Another one not on the official calendar and appropriating the Haute Couture label. I’m so sick of these hacks.” [gallianostan]

“So shiny, so tacky, so cheap!” [tourbillions]

“Rhinestone Pride Parade.” [jeanclaude]

MISS | Giambattista Valli

The Hits & Misses of Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week Spring 2024

“Very garish. Pink and green DO NOT GO. Especially not on 80s prom dresses.” [Golden Petals]

“As usual, a sh*t load of fabric but nothing to say with it.” [avonlea002]

“I mean, the collection feels like he is making mockery of Haute Couture. The tragedy is that Valli really thinks this is what Haute Couture should look like! Those 80s floral prints are straight from the Golden Girls living room upholstery- and they never should be removed from there!” [jeanclaude]

MISS | Schiaparelli

“It’s just so synthetic and calculated. There isn’t really that much of a shift happening, and the mood board seems like a very obvious one from start to finish. Feels incredibly conceited.” [Cocteau Stone]

“He had a really strong moment for a year or so, but now it’s getting a little bit tiresome. If he were to expand his color palette, that would make a big difference. He can’t continue to produce only black, white, and gold. The archive are rich in color. He needs to confront whatever fear he has towards color because the house DNA isn’t solely black and white.” [GivenchyHomme]

“It kind of feels like Daniel Roseberry is running out of steam.” [TerraVera]

HIT | Maison Margiela

“Daaaamn. Galliano is truly back in business. It’s DISTINCTLY Galliano, but with that gritty Margiela touch.” [GoldenPetals]

“FINALLY! Drama, theater, excess, darkness, whatever. I don’t care about Margiela, I want to see Galliano like in his glory days. I’m glad to see his confidence is back, and to finally own his aesthetic at full.” [FelipeV]

“I was absolutely moved to tears, we haven’t seen or experienced anything like this in eons. And, God, is fashion hungry for this. This almost feels like a swansong collection, or at least a culmination of the narrative he’s been weaving these last few years. I’m just lost for any intelligent words right now.” [Mr-Dale]

The Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week Spring 2024 season is upon us and as the fashion pack flock (or remain in Paris amid Menswear Paris Fashion Week) to the French capital to bare witness to the collections. In honor of the upcoming collections, we are at theFashionSpot are flashing it back a whole decade to the Spring 2014 season.

To say the world of fashion has changed dramatically within the past 10 years would be an understatement. Still on the schedule back in Spring 214 was the outright splendor and fabulosity of an Atelier Versace presentation. Donatella Versace welcomed guests inside The Ritz hotel and presented a collection which was an ode to Grace Jones. Raf Simons was creative director at Christian Dior, still on his mission to modernize couture, with his collection boasting inspiration of the work of French sculptor Valentine Schlegel. Maria Grazia Chiuri was still at Valentino alongside her co-creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli, where their love of the opera was on full display. Viktor & Rolf cast the Dutch National Ballet as models while Jean Paul Gaultier invited burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese to walk his couture extravaganza. Elsewhere during the season, the titan of Italian fashion that is Giorgio Armani gave us an absolute masterclass in refined elegance, evoking the gypsy spirit of Loulou de la Falaise and couture sneakers were high on Karl Lagerfeld’s agenda at Chanel.
