Stuffed animals at the French National Museum of Natural History formed the backdrop of today’s Vetements show. The clothes shown in front of them formed a dark mix of streetwear looks. Oversized jeans paired with a hoodie, a denim jacket and a cap. A floral printed dress worn over a red colored turtle neck paired with sport socks and sneakers. Everything was a bit oversized, backpacks, fanny packs and a few face masks completed the looks. The last few models had their faces and upper bodies completely covered in scarves/pieces of fabric. Fear formed a big source of inspiration for Demna Gvasalia. It wasn’t necessarily a very pretty or optimistic picture, but a realistic one nonetheless.
