Referencing "The St. Tropez of Veruschka and Jane Birkin, San Francisco's Summer of Love and the London of Bianca and Mick Jagger," Clements Ribeiro traveled back to the days of haute bohemia with diagonal-panel peace-and-love skirts, off-the-shoulder prairie tops and ruffle-cascade chiffon dresses. Though these hippie classics have become overly familiar of late, several of Clements Ribeiro's pieces had verve to spare.
