PARIS, January 30 - Bernhard Willhelm's show consisted of ethnic caftans in resplendent gold-chained brocade, lamé capes and jackets, and usually cut knee-length puffed shorts and jogging suits. Jeans laced up the side with blue strings, and leather bomber jackets were notable for their intricate workmanship. The black, non-professional models seemed to be enjoying the moment, as were many a bleary-eyed fashion editor, late Sunday night.
