Paris Street Style: Vive la différence

The Street Style images that paraded across the viewer’s lens during FW2011 Paris fashion week, seemingly worn by the pride of human peacocks, featured such a vivid strut of colors.  The spectacle of people watching has been favorably brought to us in mega-watt technicolor, as bold saturated costume oriented hues made multiple cameos.  The academic excellence of the black trend on the Parisian runways was rightfully challenged with the street smarts of florescent pinks, neon greens and even brighter blues.  The pairing of traffic-stopping separates such as, a sporty cropped bolero with a cashmere henley or a stove pipe pant with a saturated hue sock painted brilliant freshness.  These bold cityscapes remind the fashion conscience that the art of street style is very much alive and continues to publicly declare vive la différence.
