Vincent opened the Paris Fashion Week

“Out of the way” screamed in the Veinsanto show. And, as she wrapped up the opening show at Paris Fashion Week, the audience got right behind her as she sailed through the enormous shoulders.

If there’s one thing that embodies the wicked sense of fantasy and humor that is Victor Veinsanto, it’s his ability to shock with a bit of brutal realism.

Originally from the world of ballet, Veinsanto began his performance as a professional dancer in a stunning, traditional leotard – almost like a polka dot swimsuit but with chains, bugle beads, plastic pieces and metal studs.

Despite being hyper-theatrical, Veinsanto can create great business clothes – slyly worn denim parkas, shimmery abstract-print stretch cocktails or sassy corsets made of stucco-like velor.

Underscoring Victor Veinsanto’s cult status, a collection of other designers was on display: Jean Paul Gaultier, Charles de Villemorin and Rick Owens’ aide de camp, Tyrone Dylan.

“Bravo! Bravo! It’s great. Also, you are loyal and generous to yourself. It was beautiful, and it’s great that you’ve been working so, so hard,” Gaultier said happily as he hugged Weinsanto from behind.

The show proved that Victor can be dressed with aplomb. Like a classy asymmetrical gown worn by a vamp with two-inch long white nails, a choker cluster, and witch-worthy black hair. While the stripped trench coats have heads nodding in approval.

Weinsanto rejoiced with a loud voice as he took his bow. It’s incredibly inclusive – with a cast that includes transitions, cross-dressing and plus size.

All presented in front of a beautiful panel of Gérard Pigault – who makes collection designs for Dior and other big houses – especially show last bird of paradise corset dress.

Although Veinsanto is still in its infancy, it has achieved cult status. Hundreds of fans gathered outside and couldn’t even get inside the crowded show.

“Everyone should have their own goals and dreams. So it’s not one direction, more the spirit of transparency,” said the designer, his hair green for the show.
