The new Jacquemus collection has arrived at OC and I'm obsessed with the pieces. All the pieces. Titled "La Piscine," the collection is an ode to the swimming pool in blue, white, and red. Balancing Jacquemus' easy simplicity (wool mini skirts, white blouses) with quirky details (Tricolour pockets and felt lettering), it literally could not be any more French. To top it off, designer Simon Porte Jacquemus invited five of his friends, including his self-professed muse DJ Clara 3000, to model the collection in the video below: a mockumentary about a too-cool-to-care Paris girl squad directed by Bertrand Le Pluard and Christophe De Heaulme. Love it for the typography that reminds you of high-school French videos and the array of perfect fall pieces. Below, we asked the girls a bit about themselves.
