Observations from Williams’ past produced many of the looks. These looks were defined by long and loose silhouettes, frayed hems, thick chains and fearsome facemasks.
The muse this season was the style of Jamaican Reggae singer Alkaline, who worked on the show soundtrack. The American designer, the former collaborator of Lady Gaga and Kanye West, brought his streetwear vibe again to the haute Paris runway.
Williams’ vision is urban, sports-infused and pared down. This was the high-fashion Givenchy of Audrey Hepburn in name only.
