Uncovered: Turkish designer Cengiz Abazoglu's provocative new design
French designer Dominique Sirop unveiled a more sophisticated number
Posing alluringly in a barely-there purple gown, this model looks as if she's auditioning for the Cheeky Girls.
But even the usually daring pop duo may have second thoughts about wearing this particular creation.
Despite being floor-length, the lilac tunic gives a daring glimpse of the wearer's derriere.
The provocative new design was unveiled by up-and-coming Turkish designer Cengiz Abazoglu during Paris Fashion Week.
Embellished with silver embroidery and held up by detached silver cuffs, it was the most striking piece of a strong capsule collection.
Abazoglu also showed pink, white, electric-blue and mint-green dresses as part of the his Haute Couture 2009 spring/summer collection.
None of his extrovert designs could be described as modest.
As well as the bottom-flashing gown, there were dresses slashed to the waist, and tunics which skimmed the thighs.
The designer also seems to have a particular fascination with sheer fabrics which offered tantalising glimpses of parts of the body.
His models, however, proved more than up to the challenge, flaunting their exposed curves and posing for photographs backstage in the plush reception rooms of the prestigious George V Hotel in Paris on Monday.
Little-known Abazoglu can already count Britney Spears and Paris Hilton to vaunt his products, after they bought handbags from his previous collection, CA Deluxe Pret-a-Porter.
The designer, who works mainly in Russia, has stores in Ankara, Istanbul, Moscow, Tokyo, LA and New York.
Meanwhile, French designer Dominique Sirop revealed a sophisticated number.
The black and white see-through dress gave the model a more modest look, while being equally seductive.
Sirop defines himself as a 'minimalist dandy'. He says the ideal aesthetic is to join sophistication with simplicity.
