It was the debut of the Resort 2013 collection for Salvatore Ferragamo last night in Paris, which was presented during a live runway show at the Louvre (Musée du Louvre). This marked the first time in history that a brand has shown inside the halls of the prestigious museum. Nothing like making fashion history!
Among the glamorous attendees were actresses Leighton Meester (“Gossip Girl”), Freida Pinto (“Trishna”) and Hilary Swank (“Conviction”) in striking looks from the Fall 2012 collection.
Leighton arrived looking regal in rich oxblood red; a sheer off the shoulder blouse that was enriched with beautiful gold embroidery, which was paired with a dazzling sequin and bead-embellished pencil skirt.
She gathered her golden brown tresses back to show off her bare shoulders, before completing her look with a black minaudière and matching Ferragamo platform peep toe pumps.
Freida wore a black dress that was similar to Leighton’s skirt. The sparkling elements were definitely a focal point, despite the connected sheer billowing blouse above the sweetheart neckline. This look was complete with diamond earrings, a black clutch and platform satin pumps.
Unlike Leighton and Freida, Hilary wore a head-to-toe Fall 2012 look!
Everyone loves a good classic pump, but I was so excited to see that Hil paired her beautiful gold-embroidered black long sleeve dress with the sexy strappy sandals from the runway. She added a pop of color with a red lacquered manicure and pedicure before finishing off with a gold clutch and a simple and chic low ponytail.
I guess the fashion show didn’t end when the models stepped off the catwalk!
