PARIS, Jan 28, 2010 / FW/ — Entitled “Outre Noir” (Also Black), Béatrice Ferrant and Mario Lefranc created dressed the ladies from day to night in figure-enhancing silhouettes that elongate and frame the face.

Tiny waists that are emphasized by a belt or a corset-like bodice; with the model’s hair slick or in a ponytail and wearing natural make-up, there is a certain naiveté that is exuded that you almost thing of an ingénue.

Though the collection’s title is “Outre Noir”, black was not the only color; peppered by orange red, purple and beige, it is a very lively, even colorful collection.
