With the hippie vibe going strong for spring/summer 08 it was no surprise that Paris Fashion Week kicked off with fashion house Balmain sending down models in loose fringed dresses and long hippie locks.

Hippie chic at Balmain

Despite the very strong hippie vibe, sexy and sophisticated reigned supreme at the legendary houses of Fendi, Versace, and Dior. Unfortunately there were some big disappointments from Balenciaga, who created a mix between sci-fi and floral for his collection, and John Paul Gaultier, who had a disastrous collection inspired by pirates and full of cameo print. Who knows what to expect from the much anticipated Chanel, Nina Ricci, and Lanvin collections.Sophisticated in citrus yellow swirls at Fendi
