Lacroix's 2006/7 Autumn/Winter collection, inspired by the Renaissance, combines the opulent fabrics, colours and ornamental embroidery of that period with contemporary shapes, such as trench-coats and mini-dresses, to create a look that is glamorous and dramatic. The catwalk shows took place in the V&A's splendid Raphael Gallery displaying paintings by the Renaissance master and provided visitors with a unique opportunity to see Lacroix's theatrical new collection within this historical setting.
