For the past 10 years, Vanessa Bruno has used her imagination and alternated seasonally between two influences - the folk elegance of her Danish mother, top model in the 70's and confirmed antique-hunter, and the taste of adventure of her self-taught father who was one of the first to tread the still virgin lands of women’s ready-to-wear.

From these chic bohemian vibes ahead of their time, she has retained the euphoria and distance necessary for those who let nothing stand in their way. During a Canadian escapade, at the age of 18, she discovered the joys of flea markets and vintage men's wear fabrics (herringbone, flannel) that she was to adapt later for her first women's wear models. After this, Vanessa Bruno, who also enjoyed a brief career as a model, offered an alternative to the designers who reigned supreme in the 90’s. She cut through and crossed the androgynous spirit of the contemporary woman and post-romantic femininity.

Self-possessed, amused, she makes anything possible: from the contemporary reinterpretation of medieval princesses to the confident simplicity of life in the great outdoors, via the more arts and crafts aspect of fashion that casually blends into the contemporary landscape. With her, jaded authenticity recovers its credibility and the hint of reserved audacity seen in her streetwise models willingly rubs shoulders with the great classics: sequined "cabas" tote bags, fluid dresses, lisle knit which, over time and across the world, have drawn the main lines of the VB stamp.

Nothing is incidental with Vanessa Bruno who, above and beyond her collections, roughly sketches out a hybrid and resolutely personal world that she brings into play all the way to her stores in Paris or Tokyo.
