The pictures speak for themselves ... even after the "Insane-Clown-Posse" menswear fiasco, Riccardo Tisci hits another one outta the park!

THE 'END' OF HAUTE COUTURE
CHANEL Couture Spring 2010
With only a handful of fashion houses currently showing couture in Paris this year, the ongoing debate on the future of haute couture (once the epitome of expression for designers and hotly-anticipated cultural event for fashion media) and its relevance in a mass-marketed, high-tech global fashion industry raises some interesting questions. I found this article on the issue to be thought-provoking, albeit rather perfunctory. What I did take from the piece (taken from Benjamin Kanarek Blog) was the name Alexis Mabille, a couturier who is relatively new to the scene but is intent on keeping the tradition of couture alive with some rather stunning creations (of which I was previously unaware).
