Yesterday, January 24, the Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani opened the Paris Haute Couture week by presenting his spring-summer 2006 woman collection in Paris.

The collection's name is "Miroir", which means mirror in French. "I think that this collection involves, for a woman, finding herself beautiful in front of the mirror, not caring about the trends, the fashion, anything. What I wanted to do was making women beautiful in front of a mirror," the designer said.

The audience could enjoy seeing silk silver outfits, cream blazer-and-trouser suits, sparkling with crystals and pearls, and also long, backless evening dresses featuring black organza frills on necklines and ranging from blue to lavender with floral prints.

The designer, who has only designed three Haute Couture collections so far, said his creations are designed especially for very rich women who want to feel beautiful by wearing a unique, exclusive dress.
Armani's exact words about this were: "The initial collection was an experiment, because I didn't know what the Haute Couture clients would want from me, what the press would say about me. With the second one I tried to be more glamorous. This third one shows that I have realized something: you need to create unique items, all of them possibly beautiful and personal, so that women understand that they have a choice. If a woman chooses a dress, she won't choose a different one as well. It will be chosen by another woman. So, as not more than two pieces of the same item will be sold worldwide, I want to be exclusive."

Although the women from the Arab countries wear western dresses only when they get together for private occasions and even if Japanese women mostly wear Kimonos for events after getting married, these two categories are the best buyers for such a collection. Some other faithful clients are the celebrities who prefer choosing the clothes during the fashion show and then having them especially made. This way, the public persons avoid going into the shop, having it closed and trying on clothes, which is a little annoying and time eating for them.
