PARIS FASHION WEEK A/W 2007-08 The Show as its own Subject at Dries Van Noten

It's an idea that was first popularised by Isaac Mitzrai: cordon off one half of the catwalk space with a screen, through which the audience can view the show's preparation. You see here the clothesrails, the hair and make-up section and the 'backstage' photographers.
