This is what the fashionable crowd is wearing in Paris. Very few people could afford the Balmain jackets worn here by Barbara Martelo and Anna Dello Russo.

You will see everything and anything worn on the streets of Paris.

I have been reading Bill Cunningham's column in the NYTimes for over 20 years.

I don't know what I'm looking at when on vacation there, but I rarely notice <i>anything</i> like these outfits. The 'Indiana Grandma' lady surely was at a costume function, OHG.

I'm so rattled - that was meant to be OMG.

I wrote "fashionable crowd" when I meant "fashion crowd." Most of the ladies shown are fashion editors who attended the Paris shows in February.

Not too many people can get away with wearing a ripped t-shirt to work like Emmanuel Alt can.

It looks like some of the fashion crowd were wearing their entire wardrobe all at once. I suspect grandma isn't actually from Indiana.

Thanks for the fun article.
