Electropop duo La Roux performed at the Viktor & Rolf Spring/Summer 2011 presentation, which added even more to the intimacy of the event. Titled 'Monsieur,' the collection honed in on what it means to dress like a man.
The collection really took on life with the subdued performance by the British band. Frontwoman of La Roux Elly Jackson explains how she toned down her original songs to suit the presentation: "It’s a lot more Viktor & Rolf. It wouldn’t really be right to do the songs as they are on the record in a space like this."
