A circus theme is notoriously tricky, but Bode kept it well-grounded for its Paris debut.
Emily Adams Bode wasn’t quite the opening act of Paris Men’s Fashion Week — she had the second slot on Day One — but it was one of the most highly anticipated.
Bode decided to make her runway debut in the French capital since most of her buyers are in Europe and Japan, but her theme couldn’t have been more homegrown: the collection was inspired by her family’s history as wagonmakers for the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus in the early 1900s.
The designer dipped into her bag of vintage treasures to add quirky accessories such as a Plexiglas moth brooch, or an eerie 19th-century mesh mask used in Odd Fellows fraternity rituals. And was that gray suede cap with the floppy ties a sideways nod to Tim Burton’s remake of “Dumbo”? “Everything that you see on the runway is technically reproduced or reproducible,” she explained, noting that the opening look — a striped duster coat — was based on a Twenties curtain fabric she bought in Paris two years ago, which she had replicated by a U.S. mill.
