Lanvin

Lanvin was one of the stand-out shows of Paris Fashion Week. Alber Elbaz knows what women want to wear and how to make them beautiful. These high waisted trousers and trademark bow-tie effect camisole top are so elegant and only one part of a really covetable collection.

Miu Miu

Autumn Winter 2008-09,Miu Miu,model,designer,catwalk,runway Miu Miu

True to form the Miu Miu show gave us something different to everything else on display in Paris. The collection had a sporty feel and this pea green satin layered under a laser-cut tunic was the clear winner.

Louis Vuitton

Marc Jacobs delivered a distinctly 80\'s show for Louis Vuitton. This little black cocktail dress with a bridal veil effect at the back captures the 80\'s spirit without being literal.

Stella McCartney

Stella McCartney knows how to flatter the female form consistently providing clothes which make women feel feminine without looking too young and girly. This lace detail top and cocoon skirt is a perfect example of why her label keeps going from strength to strength.

Alexander McQueen

Autumn Winter 2008-09,Alexander McQueen,model,designer,catwalk,runway Alexander McQueen

As ever, Alexander McQueen took us into the realms of fantasy with his stunning collection of tulle gowns which wouldn\'t look out of place at the Couture shows in Paris. This is not for every day, in fact I can\'t imagine anywhere you could wear something this beautiful and do it justice. Utopia?

Viktor & Rolf

Autumn Winter 2008-09,model,designer,catwalk,runway,viktor and rolf Viktor & Rolf

Viktor & Rolf had a lot to say for themselves this season and this chic slogan jumper said it all. I only hope they\'re not referring to the price tag.
