You could see the façade’s organic grid-like structure in the tweed pockets that adorned the slender column coat that opened the show, and likewise on the tunic that followed. Viard echoed those lines-as well as elements from the building’s interior-in a collection she called “metropolitan.” Named after the arrondissement it inhabits, the triangular Le19M was designed by Rudy Ricciotti whose “concrete thread” façade evokes the intricacy of embroidered haute couture cloth. “I feel like I’m back at school when I’m here,” Viard said after the show, and she’d get top marks for organization. There was an icicle-like tinkling on the soundtrack. Virginie Viard invited guests to Le19M, the newly opened building devoted to the workshops of the maison’s artisans, where she presented her most crafts-centric collection within the very same architecture that had informed its cuts and motifs.
