Just like the clothes, this casting is a throwback . . .
— a raised catwalk complete with old-school show photographers snapping the exuberant models making their way down the line, logo-adorned tees and accessories, high-cut swimwear, and purses shaped like iconic No. 5 bottles that all pointed to our current obsession with all things '90s. It was joyful and lighthearted, sexy and fun, complete with pelvic cutouts and Virginie's reimagining of '90s-era denim.
The reimagining, I'm afraid, stops there. While Virginie's designs tapped into the relevancy of nostalgic trends, giving them contemporary updates, the runway itself failed to meet the moment. The nostalgic lens with which the show was cast was, in fact, so strong, it essentially told the same story we saw on '90s runways and had hoped to move beyond in 2022.
