Paris' Lycée Carnot school was re-configured for the designer's decidedly more grown-up audience with alternative forms of green and purple seating and draped curtains used to section-off parts of the vast hall. The sports hall's court lines were left untouched however, for Tisci's vixens to stride over
Kenzo: Set designer Etienne Russo of Villa Eugenie scored again with his installation inside a Paris skate park for Carol Lim and Humberto Leon's latest Kenzo collection. The show snaked between virtual avatar's faces speaking from oversized digital screens and industrial, concrete mounds
