  • Story Text: For his first haute couture collection, 34 year old Frenchman Christophe Rouxel has taken inspiration from an 18th century German literary movement called "Sturm und Drang".

    Newcomer and guest at the Paris Autumn-Winter haute couture collection, Christophe Rouxel offered up glamour as well as smart, city looks.

    Femininity and simplicity are keynotes in his designs.

    Flowing satins and silk created a romantic feel to some outfits, while attention to detail was much in evidence with extravagant scarves and jewellery adorning many of the models.

    The colours of autumn featured in the collection, with strong reds, browns and beige.Plunging necklines may not directly translate to every woman's wardrobe but the hint of mischievousness was well received.
