In 1959, Brigitte Bardot a.k.a. BB wore a pink and white gingham dress when she wedded Jacques Charrier. Nothing more was needed, gingham started…
Since then, it never really left us…
Children from a good family, they wear gingham bloomers or a gingham smocking dress. Then, gingham is on the smock, in navy or red. As a teen, they avoid it… it’s really too BB! But we have not seen everything gingham has to offer yet. Falsely conventional, it reappears later on as sexy mini shorts…
And here it is, everything is wrapped up, it and I are for life.
This is the gingham magic: bringing an untimely freshness and cheekiness. With it, there are no faux pas, except maybe too classic or conventional pieces that give us instantly a tightened look, you get where I'm going with this?
Have a nice sunny weekend,
Camille
