RANCK SORBIER showed at the Opéra Comique with one of the classiest settings at Fashion Week in Paris. A solo pianist, Michel Runtz, accompanied the models, who showed 16 garments between the four of them. Runtz composed original music for the event.
   Led by supermodel Adriana Sklenarikova Karembeu, Sorbier’s clothes showed passion and energy. Karembeu walked on to a catwalk strewn with red and white roses, preparing us for the colours of what the designer called his ‘Planète Couture’ collection. These colours, along with black, were the principal ones of the range. Sorbier decided to go for minimalism rather than overornamentation.
