Vanessa Bruno’s Le Bel Èté

Dreamy, ethereal and vaguely evocative of Antonioni’s The Passenger, Vanessa Bruno’s S/S10 video Le Bel Èté is director Stéphanie Di Gusto’s second installment of the designer’s “video poems”.

Starring Dossier issue three cover girl Lou Doillon, it takes viewers on an internal rollercoaster from melancholy to exuberance and on an external trip from an isolated room to sand dunes. The journey is expertly accompanied by a soundtrack that begins with So Post All ‘Em by YACHT, followed by a somber solo from the Canadian pianist Gonzales and ending with an effervescent melody that falls somewhere between the two.

And then there’s the clothing: Bruno’s signature feminine yet clean creations. Ankle-length skirts, fuchsia separates, billowing blouses and dresses, lace and crocheting, sandals, camisoles and a covetable plush jacket adorn Doillon as she captivates and charms in this role reminiscent of an eccentric ballerina.
