Paris Fashion Week Spring Summer 2011
Who: Viktor & Rolf
What it made us think of: Wearing your husband's clothes.
What we liked: French cuffs, reworking men's shirts, striped leggings,
What we didn't: The shiny 80s bridal bits.
Who: Hussein Chalayan
What it made us think of: A skilled seatress and mother of six who has to account for a rework each scrap to keep them dressed.
What we liked: Models in veils in a country that has outlawed them. Reworked blazers, refusing to conform to shape norms
What we didn't: It felt grad studenty, but perhaps that's because a similar idea wasn't as well executed back in London.
Who: Maison Martin Margiela
What it made us think of: Wrapping dad's new shirts and pants for Father's Day.
What we liked: a complete disregard for the body![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrd9MmH1XcOd-XqGFJAwp2BTZujqf1E1rArSDlz9MyqoU-a50kVO3Hdn4UkWdLIi-Fx0vu2IMWUr6qz3kEQJ9lzNY5Y5ew_ly7YFm8kJ0lDlrAOwrzFsPKAXJPfv_Q-A7wDnLY_XPAn-M/s400/maison+martin+margiela+spring+summer+2011.jpeg)
