PARIS, Mar 9, 2003/ FW/ --- Veronique Branquinho's Fall 2003 presentation was almost like a fairy tale,
when little Red Riding Hood visited her grandma and had to pass through the woods.
In fact, there was a model dressed in white, a red shawl worn like a hood.
Her dress was simple, A-line with darts to show off her figure. The embellishment was a
plastic-like fabric worn over the dress.
The word to use is 'cute', after all, this is Little Red Riding Hood.
The other models wore clothes inspired by the woods, and looked like they were denizens of
the forest.
Two models were dressed like riders, complete with riding boots, as if their horses were just
grazing and they were just taking a walk.
And there was the wood fairy with her gold long-sleeved V-neck top.
There was a even a witch, in her beautiful black dress and thank goodness the model
was very pretty since this is only a metaphor.
Other models wore plaid and knit pants, representing the lumberjacks.
It was whimsical in a way, enough to give you a smile at end of the show.
