Facts: Vanessa Seward’s business is flourishing. Last night, she opened her first Parisian boutique on the Boulevard Saint-Germain, after setting up shop with a store in L.A. She demonstrated exactly why she’s prospering with her Spring 2017 collection—brimming with the blueprint that has made her brand an international hit.

Those signatures included graphic t-shirts and patterned dresses: overflowing with functionality which we all know is a cornerstone of a fruitful label.

Printed separates continued to expand the wearability quotient, with colorful classic stripes, spirited animal patterns, and artful motifs.

What’s more practical than denim? Seward’s came in dark wash on a hooded midi dress, thigh-baring shorts, mid-rise cropped and cuffed jeans, an oversized tote, belted shirt dress, and button-front playsuit.

Nathalie Emmanuel will certainly slip into one of the collection’s many jumpsuits, but it would be nice to see Seward create some more glamorous designs for her next assortment. Her pieces are too good to not be worn on the red carpet, but they’ll need a little more glitz and glamour to make it there.
