Parsi Fashion Week SS12: Chanel, Valentino
Who: Chanel
What it made us think of: Little Mermaid if she'd taken to being a socialite mer-princess instead of wanting to be human.
What we liked: Aquatic feel, scales, suits, lines, pockets
What we didn't: The pieces that look like they have an oil slick down the front, the really plain bathing suits![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLUhNL2QsShrTLUaAyxGYHq6SbKIy13_TU0FAaL8J0dK64hBal_fqyckkkLZukVxafYq4mRNlyrBubBvQVzcUEblzNxNaIRaB7mq1tE404rJIQ2d0CYFsI06PIX7O5I_1IWFTHle64DbI/s400/Chanel+Paris+Fashion+Week+Spring+Summer+2012+1.jpg)

Who: Valentino
What it made us think of: High Fashion Anne of Green Gables meets Victoria's Secret
What we liked: Puffy sleeves!, lace, florals, delicate dresses, well placed sheer
What we didn't: Poorly placed sheer, block of plain dresses, overly nightgown-ish looks![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRgvrCpV3Mfk2yh_xUWIVzlSKrEyevgaFV0JKSEuwxQLkmnm5TevGR_g7XgoWdVaX6YUG0uxyp_dzdkXzfemg9p_7cuVNp7IbRgKLgGN0OJmG9TrGehnCKYVg6CtfN7alInNe9Vgvv8yI/s400/Valentino+Paris+Fashion+Week+Spring+Summer+2012+1.jpg)
