Veronique’s Gentlemen
Veronique Branquinho’s man is not the muscle-bound sportsman nor waifish rockstar boy of the runway, but a gentleman. He is refined and grounded in a bucolic sensibility, and does not wear ‘fashion’.
For this shoot in A#6 Veronique was there, just out of frame – but you can feel her presence in every image – in the blurred fawn etching on a far wall, in the records playing, and certainly in the artfully placed words on the Scrabble board:
FRIENDS | WHISKY | DESIRE | FUR | FIREPLACE | SMOKE | WINEGUM | WOOD
