Franck Sorbier Blends Inca Myth with Modern Fashion

Franck Sorbier is a designer from Paris. He showed his new haute couture collection on Wednesday. The collection mixed theater, art, and couture codes together well.

One model wore a gold crown and held a staff. It was a strong image for the show. The collection had lots of pageantry and also ancient myths.

Sorbier's clothes had historical shapes and styles. Skirts were big and bodices were structured. Gold chainmail looked like armor but was delicate and sleeveless.

A poncho with gold fringe mixed Andean style. It also showed Parisian style. Coats had embroidery with organic shapes growing on the fabric.

The show's background looked like a volcanic landscape. The fabric seemed alive and moving. Sorbier showed that couture can look to the past and other cultures for ideas.
