Walking into the 19th-century Salon Impérial at the Westin
Paris, we knew instantly that Tsumori Chisato had a treat in
store for us this fall. With a backdrop that dazzled with ornate

a silk caftan adorned with child-like appliqué, lapels covered in sequin that received several double takes from show attendees. Chisato is on trend without being trendy, her designs are
anchored in originality, luscious colors and plush fabrics, which is why we keep wanting more season after season!
