At Porte de Versailles the vast exhibit hosts 1050 exhibitors as Yves Saint Laurent and Kenzo prepare later shows. Designers favor plaid patterns, oversized sweaters, and slim ankle pants with midheel pumps while tunics over pants hint at next season’s trends. St Laurent reportedly blends Ballet Russe influences with Cossack and peasant outfits, while Kenzo envisions Robin Hood camouflage and Indian-inspired pieces.
