Fashion in Motion: Olivier Saillard

London fashionistas gathered to watch the highly anticipated ‘Models at Work’ a performance created by Olivier Saillard on Friday night. The Raphael Gallery at the V&A was a fitting dramatic location for the show as the Old Masters gazed down upon the runway and packed audience. Paris-based museum director, curator and performer Olivier Saillard worked with five renowned French models to explore the development of the poses of the fashion model. Saillard commented on his usage of famous 1980s & 1990s models that ‘modern models are really strict, like hangers’ and he wanted to show how models in the 80s had attitude.

Separated into five sections, the audience was treated to the opening of models wearing black sheaths mirroring the protective sheaths used in early 20th century fashion houses, which was quickly followed by models playing with the manifold uses of the white tunic, whose pattern reflected those worn by fashion houses in-house models. Dressed solely in black bodysuits the models mimed elegantly the actions of dressing and undressing for the third section and the fourth section joyfully explored fashion designers’s uses of calico in the design process as models ripped and reshaped calico forming new garments.

The climax of the show showcased inventive and delicate black tulle garments designed by Christian Lacroix. Lacroix looked to the silhouettes of outfits by designers such as Yves Saint Laurent, Jean Paul Gaultier and Claude Montana for his inspiration. Not only featuring a selection o the world’s top fashion designers and models, Fashion in Motion at the V&A also involves a wide audience in the exciting and captivating catwalk experience.
