RUNWAY: Moncler Gamme Bleu SS12
Thom Browne's
Moncler Gamme Bleu collection was exceptional, as always. Its gimmick this season was an ode to fencing. Once the models started to strut down the runway, the all-white looks gave way to more color, seen in Browne's signature tri-color: red, white and navy blue. The stripes seen at the end were quite beautiful, when taken separately. The entire collection was presented to the Star Wars theme and with that iconic theme playing in the background with the fencing references, it was a "winning" combination. It made us want to learn to fence, or at least to scream "en garde!" from the rooftops.
