There's a downside to designers showcasing beautiful fabric in all it's glory... it can get rather heavy.
When Stephane Rolland's muse-of-the-day - former supermodel Yasmin Le Bon - took to the catwalk wearing the Paris Fashion Week show's final look,
she needed two assistants to help her get the gown down the runway.
The, literally show-stopping, red silk jersey dress - with assorted lacquered metal panels on the bustier and down the front of the skirt - weighs 50 kilos (110 pounds)... probably almost as much as Yasmin herself weighs.
At its longest point, the fabric on the dress was 45 metres long.
But the two good-looking assistants showcased the train at its best by artfully arranging it around the model's feet.
