Haute Couture Spring 2011 Shows in Paris Get Wild

— January 31, 2011 — Luxury
Designers such as Valentino, Dior, Givenchy and others took inspiration from the animal kingdom during last week's Haute Couture Spring 2011 shows. From Givenchy's bison-inspired headdresses to Christian Dior's corvid-mimicking gowns and masks, there was no shortage of wild designs on the catwalk.

Avian, aquatic, reptilian and wild animal fashions gave a glimpse of "spring fever," with some of the most stunning of these animal-inspired fashions including Valentino's interpretation of the jellyfish and Dior's elegant ostrich dress.

Implications - The best part about haute couture week in Paris is that it serves as a celebration of art at its most bare, minimalist form: handcrafting products, high quality fabrics, and top notch materials. With the Spring 2011 couture season just coming to a close, the animal kingdom reigns supreme in the fashion world yet again.
Trend Themes
1. Animal-inspired Fashion - The animal kingdom has inspired haute couture designers to create stunning fashion, opening opportunities for more animal-inspired designs and themes.
2. Handcrafted Products - Haute couture fashion is a celebration of handcrafted products, high quality fabrics, and top-notch materials, creating opportunities for small businesses and artisans to tap into this market through unique designs.
3. Minimalist Art - Haute couture week in Paris serves as a celebration of minimalist art, opening opportunities for designers to create products that are beautiful in their simplicity and high quality to meet the demand for this style.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Design - Fashion designers can take inspiration from the animal kingdom to create unique collections and tap into the growing demand for animal-inspired fashion.
2. Artisanal Handcrafted Products - Artisans can tap into haute couture's celebration of handcrafted products, high quality fabric, and top-notch materials, creating unique designs that cater to this market.
3. Luxury Products - Manufacturers of luxury products can tap into the growing demand for minimalist art and create high quality minimalist products that cater to this market.
