At Stéphane Rolland, structured silhouettes and three-dimensional, theatrical details stood out. The beauty look was clean with a dewy lip and a sharp cateye.

Full-on bombshell sexiness was the name of the game at French label Alexandre Vauthier, where the first few looks, comprising thigh-high boots, crotch-skimming basics and chunky overcoats boldly laid out the designer’s intentions. (Twitter)

With its exaggerated silhouettes and voluminous ruffles, Dice Kayek’s Spring 2016 Haute Couture collection was mostly drama and a little pomp. Titled Woven Tales and described by the brand as “a fantasy sewn of oddly familiar silhouettes,” the collection boasted oversized peplums and belled silhouettes, festoons of feathers on shoulders, and crystal-studded bibs.

Chanel put up a grand show like every time, with Lagerfeld’s vision as detailed as ever. The runway turned into a boxed, doll-house inspired mansion, all created with eco-friendly material. What we loved the most was the beauty look — black swan-esque eye makeup and croissant-inspired buns. And the shimmery capes were not be missed either!
