TFW diary: Caroline Néron’s beaded goddesses
Caroline Néron’s Spring 2012 presentation was the kind of runway show that I probably fantasized about as a child in the ‘90s, but haven’t expected to see since. There was a live singer, a live drum beat, a wind machine, and a story of slinking goddesses falling to earth. (What?!)
Whole-body chains were worn with stacked bracelets, rings, earrings, and metal-fringed epaulettes—my personal favourite detail. Three goddess-specific looks emerged on the runway, each very similar but with slightly different colouring—but the pièce de résistance was the final look: the lone model who walked out in body chains with wing-like strings of gems and beads attached to jeweled cuffs garnered audible gasps. Gasps, yes, but we’d like to know just what kind of gasps those were.
