"For all the British points of reference appearing on the latest Carven inspiration board (Twiggy, bearskin caps, Prince of Wales check), the corresponding collection did not amount to an Anglo-inflected pastiche. Instead, it seemed as if Alexis Martial and Adrien Caillaudaud treated these visual cues as raw ingredients, simmering, braising, and Carven-izing them so that the label’s faithful gamines would feel right at home. [...] They’ve found their groove by serving up more pep than you usually see from the Paris houses. And this—even more than the frilled collar knits and toggle closure tweed jackets—might have been the most Anglo influence of all."
