The talk of the Paris couture shows? A bunch of fake animal heads.
Fur has long been known to ruffle fashion critics’ feathers. But as couture week began Monday in Paris, it was a group of fake animal heads that got people up in arms.
Schiaparelli creative director Daniel Roseberry sent supermodels down the runway in designs festooned with faux taxidermy inspired by the three beasts in Dante Alighieri’s “Inferno.” A snow leopard snarled from the bust of Shalom Harlow’s gown. A lion’s face leapt off the front of Irina Shayk’s black velvet dress. The head of a wolf sat on the shoulder of Naomi Campbell’s faux-fur coat. Kylie Jenner, seated front row at the show, also wore a lion head fastened to her dress.
