MOI, VERONIQUE.BRANQUINHO TOuTE NUe

Antwerp, Fashion Museum of the Province of Antwerp (MoMU)

March 12 through August 17, 2008

The Fashion Museum of the Province of Antwerp (MoMu) presents the
exhibition MOI, VERONIQUE. BRANQUINHO TOuTe NUe, marking the tenth anniversary of the Veronique Branquinho designer label.

Veronique Branquinho graduated from the fashion department of the Antwerp Royal Academy in 1995. She first presented her women’s collection in Paris in October of 1997. In 2003, she added her men’s line and opened her flagship store in Antwerp.
In this first retrospective exhibition, the designer provides an inside look at her ambiguous, suggestive world, where birch forests bathe in moonlight and men warm themselves around a fireplace with glasses of whiskey. She gives an overview of the themes and atmospheres that have been decisive in her work and give her collections her unique signature. References to film, photography and music, which continue to reappear in her presentations and visual language, will also receive ample attention.

The exhibition is open Tuesdays through Sundays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Entrance fee is € 6.00. For more information visit the website of MoMu. For more information on the designer and a look at the latest collection of Veronique Branquinho see here.
