Models emerged from a neoclassical chateau in the sprawling Bois de Boulogne gardens after dark, the trains of their skirts trailing behind. The audience sat in a courtyard under a clear, plastic tent, huddled in blankets left on each seat, while rows of candles flickered under the sphinx statues nearby.

Models paraded by in skimpy, shoulder-baring tops, and asymmetric dresses, while trousers had slightly bulky cuts, adding volume, made of fabric pressed with wrinkles.

The show took place halfway through Paris Fashion Week, which runs to Oct 1.

The city hosts dozens of shows, ranging from smaller, emerging labels to big name brands like LVMH's (LVMH.PA), Dior and Louis Vuitton, Kering (PRTP.PA), labels Saint Laurent and Balenciaga, as well as Chanel and Hermes.
