Véronique Leroy Fall/Winter 2014: Paris Fashion Week

As we have come to expect from the designer, Véronique Leroy’s Fall/Winter 2014 collection was ultra feminine without being girly and dealt with wool in a sharp, quintessentially Parisian way. While there have been a few unusually breezy presentations throughout this Fashion Week, the cunning layering of clothes suggested that it might actually be cold out (and possible to dress for it). The first section was steeped in whites and blacks of varying opacity—ivory vest jackets over blousy black pants, and jacquard sheer shirt-skirt combinations, belted with jewelry-like gold bands—before colors were gradually introduced through tweeds and a recurring embroidered crosshatch motif. One fabric looked like cheetah that had been run too fast through a printer, becoming smudgy, and echoed the camouflage theme present in Cédric Charlier’s show earlier this week. When the designer came out to take her bow, her place as a perennial favorite of Paris Fashion Week was clear from the whooping symphony.
