CHOCOLATE COUTURE

Salon du Chocolat 2010

Crowds gathered recently at the Porte de Versailles for the 16th annual Salon du Chocolat. Guests came to marvel and sample the works of numerous chocolatiers, as well as partake in an array of presentations on baking and chocolate pairing seminars. Pulling in the largest crowd, though, was the evening fashion show, which promptly started at 5pm each day. Models toured the runway with designs outfitted in chocolate or in pieces inspired by the delightful dessert. And while there may be not have been a Paris fashion week designer present among the looks, there still lay the well-known Parisian chic and edgy attitude we so adore in each piece.
