If three is a trend then live streaming ones fashion show is as a la mode as comfort clothing and sheerness for SS10. Burberry did it. And Alexander McQueen (who announced his embarkation into the digital world this season via twitter) followed suit. Now, Louis Vuitton is hopping aboard the bandwagon, proving SS10 fashion truly represents the democratization of fashion (as Norma Kamali aptly titled her presentation at Apple's Soho store during New York Fashion Week). The latter's fashion show, set to take place October 7th at 2:30pm (local time) in Paris and will be streamed live on the luxury fashion brand's facebook page.
The movement towards egalitarian access to fashion week presentations has been a long time coming; arguably it started with the likes of Style.com uploading images of looks from brand new collections moments after they were premiered on the catwalk for anyone and everyone with access to the internet. Now, fashion houses are taking the reigns by capitalizing on their own content (and the public's insatiable appetite for fashion week access). In other words, Style.com's reputation as the go-to source for fashion week imagery could very well change as a result.
