As the epitome of Provence, Jacquemus’ 10 year anniversary show, Le Coup De Soleil, featured models like Tami Williams, Mara Kasanpawiro, Adesuwa Aighewi, Mayowa Nicholas, and Rayan Lamarre as they ebbed through a miles long runway of rose colored wood adorned in a meticulously planted yield of lavender on the French border. Simon Porte maintains distinctiveness with the shapes and colors incorporated into the natural, ready to wear fabrics that seamlessly tuck into the small of the back. The Pantone stacked, layered looks exude as much sex appeal as a diagonally cut, see-through top. We’ve never seen a halter be so elegant or a Nina Ricci inspired straw bucket hat make more sense. With the symmetry, the stature, the sun and stripes that he loves; and I can only imagine the scent of the lavender field, Simon Porte conducted one of his most incredible visions, as it all always ties back to his roots. To ten years and timeless! Ever inspired by you!
