- Story Text: Paris Fashion Week remembered Sonia Rykiel on Monday (October 3) with the catwalk show of her eponymous label having the air of an ode to the flame-haired designer who died this year.
Models wearing black jumpers bearing the slogan "Rykiel forever" and platform heels with their hair styled in the fashion of the French couturier's frizzy mane opened the show.
There followed a series of references to Rykiel -- wide-legged trousers and oversized hats with platform heels and, of course, her striped knitwear once sported by Brigitte Bardot and Audrey Hepburn.
Rykiel died on August 25 after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
