Initial reaction:

Seductive.

Colour impressions:

Deep claret red, as sensual on zip up jackets as the acres of lace, and paired with inky midnight blue and a suggestive nude.

References:

The lingerie lace and negligee slips harked back to McCartney’s graduate collection, as modeled by Kate Moss.

Prints:

A reptile scale pattern, appliqued onto a subtle sheer layer, and a grey tonal floral print like an over exposed photocopy.

Stand out looks:

The bomber-style coat with ribbed collar, in a chocolate reptile skin print – it had amazing shape, with balloon sleeves and a slightly pleated skirt. Also the appearance of Sam Rollinson in a grungy black sheer overlay slip, with a deep V at the chest and thread-thin straps.

Unexpected details:

Gold ring detailing on straps, black sheer layers over the grey floral print, and the symmetrical patterns in the finale full lace looks.

Model behaviour:

Cara Delevingne making her first appearance at Paris fashion week, in a subtly shimmering grey floral coat, and a one-shouldered black lace finale dress.

Soundtrack:

Connection by Elastica, and a remix of Royals by Lorde.

Location:

The OTT opulence of L'Opera Garnier.

Spotted:

Natalia Vodianova on the front row.
