Akris Fall 2014

PARIS — The cosmos filled the runways for the second time in as many days, but it a manner that was houses if not worlds apart. Albert Kriemler's Fall 2014 ready-to-wear collection, incorporated work of German artist Thomas Ruff and was presented on a runway lit to resemble Saturn as pictured by NASA orbiter Cassini in 1997. Heady material to be sure, but rendered with the elegance and precision for which Kriemler and Akris are renowned. Zuzanna Bijoch closed the show wearing a starry black gown embroidered with LEDs, which made for a twinkling crescendo. Iris Van Berne and Cris Herrmann also featured in this show.
