http://www.FTV.com/videos PARIS - FashionTV hit up Paris Fashion Week Spring 2012 to catch the last of the major fashion weeks in succession (New York, London, and Milan came first) and the best of Paris fashion and fashion designers.

Hussein Chalayan, a sometimes controversial designer who fuses modern art and fashion, showcased a minimalist collection infused with the occasional screen printed graphic pattern, where models walked down the runway before standing in the back to sip champagne handed to them by the designer himself. FashionTV was backstage at the Vivienne Westwood Gold Label where models flaunted thick, dramatic makeup in a Baroque 18th century style and a "ruined royalty" look under a big chandelier. The Chloe label also went back to basics, infusing minimalism with the signature femininity of the brand. Sonia Rykiel is in the audience for her namesake collection presented by head designer Nathalie Rykiel, who says she wanted the collection to be quite feminine and airy. Short bangs accentuate the faces of models at the John Galliano show taken over by Bill Blass in the wake of Galliano's controversy. The show takes on a Victorian Mary Poppins theme. Mugler's show, while much more subdued than last year's Fall 2011 collection with an appearance by Lady Gaga, has a projected image of the pop and fashion icon in the background. Bette Franke opens the lacy, floral and uber-romantic Valentino collection. Sarah Burton turned out another beautiful and eccentric Alexander McQueen collection, which is everything McQueen himself could have hoped for. Kenzo's Spring/Summer 2012 collection was bright and happy. Natasha Poly opened the Viktor & Rolf show by walking out of a life size skirt to bring the Barbie doll theme to life. Nina Ricci was beautiful and feminine, and while the girls wore midriff-baring bandeaus and tops, it wasn't overtly sexual. Alber Elbaz cut every piece by hand for the Lanvin collection, which was a winning feminine look with sharp shouldered tops in muted colors and form fitting pencil skirts. The makeup inspiration for the JC Castelbajac show is 60s model Twiggy. The clothes are galactic and alien-like with a Mickey Mouse theme throughout the collection. Serbian model Simona Andrejic opens the show. Nina Garcia calls Giambattista Valli one of her favorite shows this season. Jean-Paul Gaultier's uber-French collection is set at a retro-style fashion show from the 50s without music. Each model walks down the runway carrying a number as a woman describes their look. Finally, Rosy De Palma headlines the eccentric Manish Arora show which is both colorful and architectural.

Which show got your attention at Paris Fashion Week?

[Senanoneill05]

WHOEVER CHOOSES THE MUSIC SHOULD BE SACKED....

[GetSwingIN]

Who edited this? Would like to see the clothes... not corners of them with fast zoom ins and zoom outs and cut-aways- almost every show with this video editor was a mash of blurred colors to the music... not letting us get a good look at what was worn... Going to go and watch all of these shows individually now so I can actually see what was shown!

[DURKLDAME]

What the devil is this music. looooove the looks though. 

[DaisyVintage]
