    Veronique Branquinho Womens S/S 08 - Paris



    I am liking this as well, for the most part. Always like tougher-looking jackets mixed with the more feminine pieces.

            I also like the yellow. The first part of the show was entirely white/yellow, which inevitably kept bringing my attention to the color itself. It reminded me of Ellsowrth Kelly. I'm not his fan by any means, but I can understand the desire for visceral impact (only VB's yellow strikes me more :-)).

              At least she decided to keep the split toe look on the feet, which I can't say for the Tabi obsessed house of margiela ;)

                I don't really like this.I only like the "cape" at the end and one or two jkts.I don't like the skirts.Looks like sth you could really buy athindu stores.




                btw it was her10 ann. show,they gave away some A Magazine, which is currated by her (I didn't get any unfortunatelly).

                  "btw it was her10 ann. show,they gave away some A Magazine, which is currated by her (I didn't get any unfortunatelly). "

                    I didn't say hindu skirts:) it' the long skirts that you could find here in that kind of stores.But I read in CH blog that VBhas beendoing it ever since. Anyway I don't like it.Neither the pleats she showed. I like the blue.




                    Yes I was at the show.

                      I really don't like those skirts. [72]



                      It's getting impossible to judge her collections from the runway. I do see individual pieces--a few tops and jackets--that I like, and I know they will be of gorgeous quality in person. I also like the sunny colors juxtaposed with the dark blue. But the styling really obscures what are probably the best elements of the collection, imo.



                      I mean, if the models look dumpy, what are the rest of us supposed to do? [:|]






                      Veronique herself looks so awesome and cool...I'd rather look like this than look like the models. [79]



                      ...I mean the ephemeral, the fugitive, the contingent, the half of art whose other half is the eternal and the immutable.

                        it is not bad, but with the color palette and a lot of the detailing, it seems to me she has been visiting, a lot of Olivier Theyskens earlier works, just in a more feminine/ delicate way
                        “You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”
