Drapers' Ian Wright shared his instinctive thoughts on the latest offerings from Hedi Slimane for the house of Saint Laurent.

Watch above now!

Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel's iconic fashion house has been running for over one hundred years and has undeniably cemented itself within history as one of the most refutable maisons of all time. Renowned for the little black dress, Chanel No.5 perfume and that iconic mirrored stairwell at Chanel's apartment, 31 Rue Cambon, the house continues to make waves amongst the global fashion community.

On Tuesday 5 March at 10:30 GMT, as Paris Fashion Week begins to draw to a close, we host a live panel discussion on this mighty house. Lou Stoppard chairs the discussion on designer Karl Lagerfeld's latest collection. Joining her are guest panelists fashion journalist Julia Robson, writer Camilla Morton and Topshop creative director Kate Phelan.

Don't miss this unique opportunity for remarkable industry insight into the latest design offerings from Chanel. Our incredible selection of guests look set to provide one of the most engaging panels yet!

Kiki Georgiou's latest show reports offer soundtrack details, atmospheric pointers and concept insights. Her coverage of Paris Fashion Week includes notes on Rick Owens, Maison Martin Margiela, Carven and Yohji Yamamoto. At Issey Miyake Georgiou saw a collection 'filled with such positivity and energy that it was hard to resist'. In a similar spirit, Nicola Formichetti 'time travelled to the sixties and nineties while effortlessly catapulting Mugler the brand forward'.

At Haider Ackermann 'the women that walked out of the mist seemed battle worn' dorned in a collection of contrasting 'fragility and strength', while at Hussein Chalayan they wore dresses resembling 'a crusty artist's palette with layer upon layer of paint or an old terracotta wall now cracking with age', writes Georgiou. Her personal highlight of the week was the 'feminist' showing at Givenchy, 'a true moment when everything stops and we’re watching something very personal and emotional unfold in front of our fashion-fatigued eyes'.

Putting pencil to paper, our resident illustrator Jowy Maasdamme continues to add to our holistic collections coverage with her personal interpretation of the Paris shows.

Suggesting the show’s silhouettes and offering a taste of its technical textures, Maasdamme’s illustrations are a visual shorthand for Alexander Wang’s debut Balenciaga show. The luxury label’s instantly recognisable curve is implied in Maasdamme’s bold black blocks. Likewise, Wang’s celebrated cracked leather pieces are conjured in the figures’ fragmented skin. 

Turning her hand to Rick Owens’ show, Maasdamme focused in on the American designer’s high collars and voluminous hair for Autumn/Winter 2013. As our Paris reporter Kiki Georgiou commented in her show review, ‘To say that the models’ hair was windswept does not even come close to covering it. They looked as if they’d just emerged from a wind tunnel but Owens’ girls are fierce, they can handle that.’ With chiseled cheekbones and dangerously dark eyes, Maasdamme’s figure embodies Rick Owens’ powerful vision.

Alber Elbaz’s beetle print and bug brooches take a nightmarish turn in Maasdamme’s illustration of Lanvin’s elegant show. Creepy-crawlies scuttle across her pointy fingered figure, grouping together on its wispy haired head. 

Head to our Tumblr for the complete collection of Maasdamme’s drawings and be sure to check back over the weekend for her take on selected upcoming shows, from Vivienne Westwood to Comme des Garçons.

Last night the wonderful Oriole Cullen popped into SHOWstudio to take part in our Lanvin live panel discussion. A real bank of fashion history, she noted that Alber Elbaz's incredible beetle print could have been a modern interpretation of a traditional technique that saw beetle shells embroidered onto opulent evening wear. Look at this incredible image she's just sent through!
