Roland Mouret in Paris


I have always wanted to go to a fashion show. Elizabeth's Fairy Godmother was my Fairy Godmother and took me to the Roland Mouret show in Paris. We had front row seats. We sat opposite an Italian it-girl who is often featured in the Satorialist blog and was wearing this season's Valentino shoes (so I was told). People were being snapped left right and centre as we walked in and similary as we walked out. I must admit it was a very nice feeling to sail past those who only had standing seats.

The room at the Westin Hotel was stunning. Mirror panels had been hung around all of the walls and the lighting was extremely low. The dresses were magic and I would happily wear nearly all except the green numbers. You can see all the clothes here and a video of the show here (I am sitting to the right of the guy on the right with glasses).

I was hoping to see Arrrrrna Wintour but not sure if she was there. She could have arrived and left very quickly. Sting was there and we didn't see him either. Too dark.

Fairy Godmother and I then went to Hotel Costes for breakfast (well - the show started at 10am and we had been rushing.). We sat next to two guys from the fashion world who were talking models and shoots and covers. My scrambled eggs were very good.
