Models moved steadily down a glossy runway carrying the motif, their clothing echoing the colours underfoot – pale pink, green and purple.
The show opened with elegant trouser ensembles – black, satin pants paired with bolero jackets in pink as well as in emerald green.
Slim gowns followed, the diamond patterns delineated with sparkling beadwork that shimmered with movement, often worn with matching shoes and mini handbags.
At the end of the show, the 88-year old Italian designer took his bow in a dark, velvet suit jacket and tie, waving at the crowd before exiting with one of the models.
Haute Couture Week in Paris runs through Thursday and features some of the most prestigious fashion houses, including Christian Dior, Chanel, Fendi and Jean Paul Gaultier.
