Paris – S/S 2006 Véronique Branquinho
Véronique Branquinho's collection this Spring/Summer is a safe venture for the customer. She opened the show with a number of pieces that were very simple and did not keep to one designed look. Like, the 80’s geometric sweater in black and white. The opening pieces seemed to be bad flashback to the new wave era. Véronique did stretch leggings paired with dresses and shorts, which killed the overall look on the models. The jersey dresses were to baggy and overworked.
At the middle of the show Branquicho seemed to switch teams. The collection took a turn of refined monochromatic look. Clean lines and classic forms molded each piece. What is really eerie about this collection is how similar the looks were to Nicholas Ghesquiere. One can almost say that this collection mirrors the Balenciaga line of season’s past. The must have piece in the collection is the pinstripe grey shorts that are cut to the leg.
