Fashion and music intertwined at the Paris prêt-à-porter season yesterday as two daughters of pop-stars unveiled their collections for next autumn/winter.

	McCartney’s ‘medieval’ dress

On one hand was Stella McCartney, daughter of Sir Paul McCartney, whose hits are two numerous to mention, and on the other, Alessandra Facchinetti, whose father is Roby Facchinetti, the Italian Euro-pop-baron of the 60’s and 70’s, most recently famous for penning the theme tune for the Atalanta football team.

McCartney and Facchinetti, who was making her debut at Valentino, opened the schedule with differing viewpoints on how their upscale customers would like to look in the coming winter.

McCartney offered an ode to the modern medieval woman with long cloaks and cardigan coats in wool-felt, handmade by village artisans in Somerset, which were printed with heraldic symbols and faux coats-of-arms. Blanket-inspired knits, in earth-toned stripes enfolded the body. Suits and coats with wide, kimono-sleeves were in the same wool-felt, in muted charcoal and metallic silver.

Long dresses in muslin, silk and paisley print, were reminiscent of a Maid Marion or Guinevere, and came in forest tones of sage, ivy, autumn-orange and leaf-brown, with off-the-shoulder necklines in hand-crochet and billowing sleeves, caught at the wrist.(source:telegraph.co.uk)
