Attending Stephane Rolland's haute couture show was one of my favourite time for this season of couture week. I had seen a lot of his creations on red carpets and award nights (his big fan Kim wore his gowns at more than one occasion. No, not the sofa-inspired at Met Gala), that I'm really interested to attend his show. And when the invitation arrived at my home in Paris, I couldn’t be happier (well, only Chanel invitation could top that).

A flamenco dancer performed in the middle of the U-shaped runway, opening the spectacular show. I couldn't see it due to my position, that a huge pillar forbade me seeing the centre stage. But my vantage point allowed me to see the gowns in an imagery as if the models walked on red carpet.
Stéphane abducted the elegance of 17th-century Spanish royal lace collars and combined it with a futuristic touch and modernity of origami style, sculptural satin sleeves with clean-cut, creating sleek silhouette. His collection is predominently filled with black and classic navy blue. He created red-carpet-ready looks with royal-esque simpression, and with a twilight setting, every bright white colour of his gowns looked like being taken from wardrobe of a princess in fairy tale.

Elegant. If I should describe it in one single word, that was it.
