From February 27th through March 7th, fashion’s elite flocked to the city of lights to see the biggest names roll out their FW’17 collections at Paris Fashion Week. At recent fashion weeks in New York, London and Milan, designers put politics on the runway but in France, the main focus was on fashion, fashion, and more fashion. Perhaps the political statements were present but just a little too subtle. Regardless, we’ll always have Paris…and very, very pretty clothes. Here’s The Untitled Magazine’s picks for the top collections of the week.

Alexander McQueen

Sarah Burton continued the late Alexander McQueen’s penchant for honoring hillside tradition and folkloric heritage with a collection marked by ribbons, tweeds, & pagan patterning.

In Paris, Vivienne Westwood let her longtime love, Andreas Kronthaler, take over design duties while she walked the runway. He stayed true to her aesthetic but added in his own spin.
