The ideal woman preserved behind plastic and underneath strobe beam lights

Initial reaction:

Easter with Alfred Hitchcock.

Atmosphere:

Clinical strip lighting coldly reflected from tiled floor to plastic screen in anticipation.

Strongest look:

Hanne Gaby in mint green duchesse satin and hot orange lipstick.

Opening sequence:

Models entered all at once and stood in line on the white tile platform, surrounded by a clear plastic screen.

References:

The ideal woman preserved behind plastic, female complexity and Marilyn Monroe in The Last Sitting.

Close up:

Lacquered fabrics, eerie back-brace details and clinical ear rods.

Quote of the show:

"What you guys say is not always what you guys mean." - Prabal Gurung on the mysterious ways of women.

In attendance:

Girls stars Allison Williams and Zosia Mamet, who wrapped Season Three of the HBO show yesterday.

Final moments:

The models stayed standing behind plastic long after the finale, giving show goers a rare closer look.

Left us wanting:

A black and blue glitter-printed laminated tulle raincoat with black silk piping.
