The Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2014 collection has a rockstar edge that is only natural considering that the Paris-based designer surrounds himself with glamorous celebrities from Beyonce and Rihanna to the model who stars in his lookbook, Hana Jirickova. Channeling their lifestyle as well as his own couture creations, his designs are stunning. Style.com writes, "He recasts the themes and technical details from couture, such as the animal-print shirtdress woven with gold lamé and the braided leather bustier (for some, it's dress-length)."
Shot entirely in black and white, the Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2014 lookbook showcases these details perfectly. Complete with a David Bowie-esque hairstyle, the blonde beauty is irresistible in the sleek and sophisticated ensembles. Focusing as much on tailoring as on texture, the collection is impeccable.
