Another designer that didn't get much coverage
(likewise the breasts on her last model) was Morteza Pashaï.
From our recollection, this was about Pashaïs
fourth couture collection and while brown as the staple colour,
he ventured into reds and gold piping, proud of his Middle Eastern
heritage.
The Iranian designer has often triumphed because
of his collections' simplicity, and this autumnwinter was
no exception. Like the Lebanese transplants in Paris, Pashaï
was happy to cross cultures, but largely did so without overornamentation
and, therefore, looked well in place for the sombre and uncertain
season of his customers.
There was more pizazz backstage
as Lucire saw the clothing in a more social setting, with
models preparing, chatting, drinking wine and looking into mirrors.
The lighting there seemed more in tune with what these clothes would
experience for real once adorning their wearersand appeared
all the more sumptuous for it.
We didnt get much of an otherwise real-world
sighting of any of Paris collections, so knowing that certain garments
would likely work in real life made writing columns
about them easier. Morteza Pashaï's work certainly fits into
the category of wearable and fashionable.
As to coverage, Pashaï can expect morethe
first Iranian fashion magazine, Lotous, since 1979 was launched
in 2003 and he can expect to be one of his native countrys
most high-profile ambassadors.
