JACQUEMUS LE CHOUCHOU COLLECTION: OFFBEAT BEAUTY
Jul 28, 2023
Jacquemus designer Simon Porte loves amazing locations for his shows and the one he chose for his latest see-non-buy-now collection was no exception - Le Château de Versailles. In this historic setting of breathtaking magnificence, where models paraded along the vast Grand Canal, the designer unveiled a lineup of poetic beauty inspired by his longtime muse, Princess Diana, reimagining the dress in all manners, from elaborate to everyday simplicity.
Called Le Chouchou, French for scrunchie, the shape of this hair accessory recurs in insouciant variations, from undergarment and boudoir inspirations, at once romantic and slightly risqué, to a streamlined red-carpet opulence. For Porte showing at le Château de Versailles fulfills a lifelong dream: the freedom of creation within the grandeur of French history.
