Sébastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant present one of the fashion moments A season tonight: It’s almost certainly gone viral. The whole thing lasted about 7 minutes and ended at the end of a show that already offered plenty of great runways. Highlights include dresses made from a thousand pieces of embroidered glass that rattle loudly like a recycling truck driven by an amphetamine-addicted getaway driver. The designer’s Swipe bag is available in a solid gold version – all 1kg – which will melt after the show. It was forged by an Italian artisan goldsmith named Gabriele Veneri, accompanied by a considerable security entourage.
Especially cute is the dress in paneling a brutal metal stitching. Then there are the new, specially developed Roblox-inspired shoulders, which sometimes look like the models are wearing cereal boxes, but also seem to be an effective shot for changing silhouettes. Other pieces reinterpreted bra cups as shoulder pads. These are just a few of the ideas from the Cornucopia collection that brags about them. A less dramatic touch, which nicely illustrates their frame of reference, is the red dress, designed to reflect Fiona Johnson’s work in The Matrix Sexy glitch dress in ).
The collection is named Coperni Femme, after their first collection back After: This is an ode to a reconfigured femininity paradigm. The petticoat was mentioned at the beginning, replacing its cuff with a Trinity-style biker jacket, slung cross-body behind a bespoke jacket, hinting at the radical upgrade the designers were after.
The appearance of the closing ceremony fully demonstrated it. Bella Hadid came out in her underwear, arms folded over her chest, on a poorly lit platform. What followed, Vaillant said, was “our little geek” Meyer’s particular obsession with cutting-edge technology. A scientist named Dr. Manel Torres, Meyer, came out with a colleague and started spraying the near-naked Hadid from the neckline to the mid-calf with a white substance that looked a bit like spraying snow. When it hits her skin, it has a liquid sheen, but within minutes of application, it’s matte. A strong synthetic scent fills the Salle des Textiles of the Muséedes Arts et Métiers. Before Meyer and one of Vaillant’s colleagues came out, Hadid kept his composure during the spray and spent a minute cutting the hem and tugging at the model’s who knows what’s shoulders.
Then Hadid walked the runway in a sheer white dress – perfect fit – until five minutes ago it was a liquid in a bottle: Vogue Alchemy, invented by Copernicus.
