The collection was steeped in familiar references, from graphic motor racing checkered flags to crisp tennis whites and the kind of vampish swimsuit-and-tight combos that conjured the risqué glamour of a Helmut Newton image. Stewart, for one, lapped it up with all the gusto of a first-time visitor to the area.
“It kind of reminds me of a time that I’ve never lived in, so suddenly, I feel nostalgic for high heels and bathing suits, and a lot of luxury — and that’s definitely never been a part of my life,” she said with a laugh.
“I think especially watching the clothes walk around in this environment, there was such a sort of flippant buoyancy,” she continued. “[Virginie] was clearly having so much fun. I found myself kind of laughing throughout the show. I was giggling the whole time — it makes you kind of giddy.”
Stewart, wearing a white swimsuit with a long sheer mesh skirt, arrived with her fiancée Dylan Meyer. At the show earlier that day, the actress said she would be back soon for the Cannes Film Festival, where she will appear in David Cronenberg’s “Crimes of the Future.” In the trailer for the horror film, set in a dystopian future, Stewart’s character says: “Surgery is the new sex.”
“We are all becoming so obsessed with technology, and so sort of entwined with it, that the body is becoming obsolete. And in the film, people have evolved away from pain, and so the only way to really touch each other is to sort of open each other up in a gruesome way,” she explained.
“It feels like David’s saying something really intimate and personal about what it takes to make art, and how much it hurts and what it takes from you, and how much you have to sort of refill that void,” Stewart continued. “It is confronting, but to me, it’s not scary. I find it really sweet.”
