And not everyone is comfortable with the idea: At Akris, Albert Kriemler's liquid C-suite leathers, knits and silks in jade and lapis lazuli remained quiet in their confidence; at Sacai, Chitose Abe stuck to her usual cut-and-paste of forms and fabrics (school blazers, down jackets, tennis sweaters, chiffon), with her usual, if occasionally overcomplicated, aplomb.

"Recklessly she flung herself out of her clouds of chiffon plumage only to appear in her resplendent flesh, lying totally naked on a pile of horse blankets, laughing softly as she watched Stash Valensky, momentarily bewildered and taken by surprise, struggle out of his dinner jacket," Ms. Krantz writes in her second novel, "Princess Daisy" (1980).

Not just at Chanel, where Mr. Lagerfeld flounced chiffon and crinolines and lacy white blouses, but also at Giambattista Valli, where ultra-minis had a cancan kick and an interesting partner in cotton shirting and shrunken knit vests (an opposites-attract approach that is new for Mr. Valli), and dresses floated flower-strewn to the floor.

Explaining that he had been exploring ideas of disassociation created by digital culture, he sent out the best tailoring of the season thus far in a series of gray and white trouser suits, shirts and skirts, bunched here, twisted off-center there, volume just slightly askew under hoodies of sheer chiffon scarves that covered the head entirely.

This meticulous process yields rich, sophisticated tones that Yeramyan combines to create understated, color-blocked lingerie; in her hands, a wireless bra in a faint violet chiffon is adorned with shiny storm-blue patches of silk charmeuse, and a '40s-style pair of underwear cut in robin's egg-blue cotton is given a navy crochet trim.

Dresses were made of strips of velvet, leather and chiffon covered by thousands of minute silver studs that had been pieced together, shaped to the torso and then released, and they spoke to both past and future but were unrestricted by any moment in time, just as the body beneath was unrestricted by any corsetry or binding.

Which is why, though the book was conceived in part as an argument that said list — the original one, with past and pedigree — can be seen as a mirror held up to society, a history in chiffon and silk, it functions less as a case for the list's continued relevance than as a very well-accessorized memorial.

He also dressed Best Supporting Actress nominee Laurie Metcalf in blush sequins, Kelly Ripa in a ballgown with a green-and-pink bustled bow, author and activist Janet Mock in a sequin and chiffon tank dress with train and Olympic skier Lindsay Vonn in a sexy sheer tulle number (which had sleeves attached mere moments before she hit the red carpet).

A burbling fountain in the midst of it all provided background music for a bouquet of pastel bouclé suits with matching bouclé bootees (also some bouclé knickerbockers, but let's forget those), berry-hued cocktail dresses twinkling with flower fairy lights and feathers, and little sheaths that shimmered under the airbrushed scrim of a silk chiffon overdress and allowed for a bigger stride.

Advertise on Hyperallergic with Nectar Ads In these times of stridency and shrillness, how are works of art that speak with the softness of rustling chiffon in an overheated parlor ever to be heard amid a din of protest, propaganda, real news, fake news, politics-as-spectacle, or the staged, self-serving confessionals-as-entertainment that have become a mainstay of the media's mind-numbing echo chamber?

By the time she was 73, she told American Vogue, she had sported bare legs with heels, the cinched waist mid-calf skirt, the trapeze, the chemise, the chiffon blouse without a bra, the Mary Quant miniskirt, the YSL Smoking, the total Courrèges white-boot look, the bell-bottom trousers with the po'boy sweater, the power suit and tie-dyed Zandra Rhodes evening pyjamas.

Even the more fantastical moments in Piccioli's couture collections tend to be defined by a sort of cleanliness, and the quietest details can be the most astonishing: The fine pleats of a simple emerald chiffon skirt are lined with the tiniest of bird feathers; the white cotton shirt he holds out for me to examine is actually hand embroidered throughout in all-white stitching.

Witness the new "DVF track suit" composed of stretch jersey tunics and flared trousers in an archival geometric print, the remodeled wrap dress (and shirt and velvet tuxedo jumpsuit) that was actually a short chiffon-print number with a ruffle at the hem layered over a long ruffled slip dress, and the bird-of-paradise print on everything from stretch net separates to a red-carpet gown.

There were some latex halter tops too, and sheer lace bra tops, some leather and feather chubbies, and then more latex in push-up bombshell dresses and halter ruffle-necked cocktail numbers, the dichotomy between sex and self-conscious stolidity leavened only a little by a terrific periwinkle chiffon cocktail frock, a ruby velvet dress and the occasional culotte-and-sheer-pussy bow-blouse combo.

The ability to mix unexpected ingredients into a compelling whole is something of a Prada signature, and it was as true for the collection as it was for the audience: long, narrow silk chiffon skirts were belted at the hips under plain black T-shirt sweaters; polo shirts paired with ruffled leather miniskirts or transformed into empire-waist gowns; brocade trouser suits with knit '70s tees.

So there were ensembles entitled "Love is the Drug" and "Joy Division" and "Funkytown," which translated to deeply luxurious pajama trousers and bathrobe suits striped in crystals, acid-washed jeans and acid-washed taffeta, Lurex and leather leggings under one-sleeved asymmetrical chiffon leopard tunics, and a series of black-and-orange evening looks that resembled the remains of a Halloween party: looks for the bash after the holiday years before.

"It's a party theme," she explains on repeat in French, English and Italian, as she points out the jacquard sweaters with a vintage pattern of masks, the chiffon-weight knits, the embroidered woven lace of daisies made with the Swiss technique known as Sangallo — the many patterns and weaving methods pulled from the archives, and the new silhouettes and knit weights that push the fashion house's language forward.

The Hollywood merchandise section has Jedi costumes from Star Wars, a lush green gown exactly like the one worn by Vivien Leigh in Gone With the Wind, and the Harry Potter collection, their highest selling franchise—the black Gryffindor robe with an embroidered house crest, Albus Dumbledore's long grey robe that matched his beard, and a mannequin dressed in Hermione's purple Yule Ball gown in cascading silk and chiffon.

Or you could take it — and the way it was expressed in gold-painted chiffon plissé hung from the shoulders to float around the body like fog; washed and aged and hand-stenciled jewel-tone velvet tunics, tabards and gowns; patchworks of Fortuny brocades; and a "simple" white sleeveless gown, the neckline just deep enough to exert a magnetic pull, the hem finished in a flock of butterflies — as a declaration of faith.

For example, there is the eight-feet long "Watchtower" tunic (all pieces are from 1983 unless otherwise indicated) made of polyester satin and chiffon with mirrors creating a polka-dot pattern over the torso; a beaded throat and waist; a long curtain with tiered images of mannequin dolls, organized protests, and the words "don't make me over"; a skirt which is a cascade of translucent hues; and a long, trailing, golden nylon fringe.

He was the first to bare breasts in a fashion show, under a layer of chiffon, in 1968; he spectacularly revived the shoulder pad in his "Forties" collection of 1971, which became the blueprint for a silhouette that would dominate the 1980s; and he launched designer ready-to-wear in 1966, upending the hierarchy of the entire fashion industry and sounding the death knell for the influence of haute couture, if not its actuality.

PEOPLE has the exclusive First Look at the official portrait of the Dallas attorney, who is wearing a signature crimson dress (fans will recall she chose the same bold color on the most recent season of The Bachelor and ended up scoring a First Impression Rose from Nick Viall ) — only this time she's upped the wow factor all the way with a custom-made chiffon and tulle gown by Randi Rahm that appropriately resembles a rose in full bloom.

For the first outfit Monica created for the 14-year-old, she went with a look we're going to refer to as "festival goth," pairing a Forever 21 top with a sheer black chiffon Michelle Hébert kimono, One x OneTeaspoon high-rise black shorts, a lip-print scarf from Rockins, Ray-Ban sunglasses, boots from Alexander Wang, and a backpack and jewelry from Chrome Hearts (a natural choice, given Kaia currently serves as the face of the last two brands).

All of this is useful and much of it is relevant, and yet it has produced kind of wimpy clothes: the tequila-sunset-in-Santo-Domingo moiré, raffia, and chiffon fanciness of Oscar de la Renta; a host of early 1980s career girl (and boy) leathers accessorized with a jaunty silk scarf at the neck and cut by some wink-wink Richard Bernstein pop culture references (Barbra Streisand, Rob Lowe) worn not on the sleeve but the shirts at Coach 1941.

Still, after it was all over, after we had finished the trek from one cultural monument to the other — from the Musée Rodin, Invalides, the Centre Pompidou, the Palais de Chaillot, the Cirque D'Hiver (in case, you know, anyone was in any doubt about whether the French consider this particular discipline part of their patrimony) — it was clear that behind the tulle and chiffon, the crystals and crepe, efforts were being made to bridge the gap between escapism and the contemporary.

So if there was familiarity in the checkerboards and pomegranate prints in midcentury modern shapes and shades at Arthur Arbesser and the masculine/feminine play at Jil Sander, where Luke and Lucie Meier layered sweeping shirtdresses sliced to the hip and dish towel tunics over trousers wide and slim, that's O.K. Brunello Cucinelli has built an entire theory of fashion on the virtues of merely nudging along his hand-knit cashmeres (now mixed with a base of chiffon) and earthy tailoring.

Meanwhile, at Monse, Fernando Garcia and Laura Kim, who were recently named creative directors of Oscar de la Renta, offered a mix of torqued men's wear — pinstripes and crisp white shirts de-and-reconstructed into cold shoulder tops (shoulders are shaping up to be something of an erogenous zone) and wide, cropped trousers — before segueing into scarf and awning stripes and some white knits with sequins and paillettes creeping up from the hem like a fungus, or melting down a gown from a transparent chiffon shoulder.

And it was also present at Valentino, where Mr. Piccioli not only largely eschewed the obvious, but also many of the conventional rules of couture itself, treating daywear in a rainbow of colors with the throwaway mix-and-match ease of sportswear: pairing a long tuxedo shirt in blush chiffon with slouchy trousers and a capelike tabard; another louche pair of black pants with an oversize white shirt and an elaborately pieced cape flowing from a cropped vest tossed on top — oh, this old thing?

For every politely below-the-knee pleated skirt and jacket and shirt in classic pinstripes or plaid; for every duck-embroidered pair of red, white and blue patchwork pants or cream cable knit; or shrunken tuxedo with an intarsia portrait of the monocle-wearing Lady Una Troubridge by the 1920s Paris-based American artist Romaine Brooks, he produced its twin: a round-necked, long-sleeved, mid-calf sheath dress made to fool the eye by etching its ties and shadows and layers out of an indecipherable amalgamation of micro-beading, metallic bullion thread embroidery, minute feathers and chiffon weave.
