Your Front-row Seat to the '97 Fall and Spring Paris Collections!


Fall is the season for fashion. As part of a joint venture with GROLIER INTERACTIVE (http://www.grolier.fr/), one of France's largest multimedia and Internet services corporations, teleparc delivers STYLE FRONT directly from the streets of Paris. A multinational team of French and Japanese editors transmits up-to-the-minute fashion reports in Japanese, French and English.

To get a head start on the Paris 1997 fall and spring ready-to-wear collections which began Oct. 7, 1996, STYLE FRONT opened its Web services Sept. 26. An online gallery features major designers and their creations. Backstage covers the behind-the-scenes world of models and other fashion professionals.

A rundown of the show's programs are rounded off by regular reports from the runway floor. Forecasts of fashion trends come alive with custom-tailored Shockwave applications.

From the show's Oct 7-16 run, the STYLE FRONT-sponsored ELLE website gives coverage of the catwalk shows through photos and reports, offering an unbeatable front-row experience. Interviews with designers and top models, fascinating tips on the Parisian shopping and nightlife scenes and juicy industry gossip are all part of the fare. Budding supermodels Alice and Aurelie serve as your guides to Paris during Fashion Week.

STYLE FRONT is published in conjunction with the Fujitsu Pavilion (http://park.org./Japan/Fujitsu/) of the Internet World Exposition 1996.
