-------------------------------------------------------------------- Coolie hats, tunics over slim pants, brocaded bustiers and "imperious ball dresses" filled the runway in the Carousel du Louvre in Paris on Sunday (July 7) Ricci designer Gerard Pipart worked with many colours ranging from muted tones of plum, brown and grey, to shocking shades of orange, pink, red and blue.
He mixed matt and shiny fabrics, presented reversible cashmere coats, and offered splendour while trying to keep the design's simplicity.
Evening wear was rich in brocade, velvet and iridescent chiffon.
