Just like that, the dawn of a new decade is upon us. A milestone of sorts causing us to look inward at our past as a means of informing our future. For Australians, the turn of the decade was one glazed in red skies as the unprecedented bushfires in Australia ravished our homeland. Where we go from here is anybody\u2019s guess. On Monday, across the other side of the world in Paris, homegrown designer and fourth-generation couturier Tamara Ralph of Ralph & Russo dedicated her 2020 haute couture collection to Australia.<\/p>\n

Hosted inside Le Carreau du Temple \u2013 a former clothing market in the city\u2019s 3rd<\/sup> arrondissement \u2013 the label celebrated its 10th<\/sup> anniversary by looking back at the past decade\u2019s house signatures and reimagining their craftsmanship for the future. The off-the-shoulder corseted gown was updated with even more intricate embroidery; dainty glass beading in floral formations were stitched atop pearlescent mint in a lavish, almost-naked showstopper fit for Bella Hadid at a Cannes after-do at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc.<\/p>\n

It goes without saying, Ralph designs to frame a woman\u2019s face and d\u00e9colletage; A classic J-Lo-At-The-Grammys neck bow is balanced with a thigh-high split, a halter with a cape, a collar enriched with devor\u00e9 ostrich feathers. Perhaps though, one of the most stunning works of art was a timeless, white, one-shouldered silhouette with a delicately embellished crystal corset and matching fishnets.<\/p>\n

Angelina Jolie\u2019s Ralph & Russo-designed Maleficent<\/em> costume was given a run for its superpowers as the couturier sent voluminous tiers and dramatic flourishes down the runway. Teal, fern, seafoam, monochrome \u2013 some had big bows, others giant florals and many ruched chiffon.<\/p>\n

The label was famously tipped to dress Meghan Markle on her wedding day and had she married outside the Royal family, chances are we may have seen feathers, fringes, ruffles and embellishments in lieu of Clare Waight Keller\u2019s minimalist creation. Perhaps this will be Markle\u2019s post-Megxit, second-coming-of-an-emancipated-Duchess look? We can only wish upon its star-shaped brooch.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, amid the extravagance, the opulence and romanticism, there was something truly tide-turning about Monday\u2019s collection. As the fires still burn on the front line, the label offered a wonderful momentary reprieve. Where we are going is anybody\u2019s guess, but if it\u2019s anywhere like Ralph & Russo\u2019s reimagined future – bright and full – we\u2019ll be alright.<\/p>\n
