OMG!! A “sounder of swine” has just flown by my window or in
other words the pigs are flying!!
A rare if not first occurrence has happened at the house
that Tisci reinvented. A brand what was the ultimate in chic and tasteful that
went to the ghetto and the locker room has suddenly re-emerged as... OMG ...
dare I say it ... wearable/salable clothes that are not aimed at urban youth,
high schooler or the gender confused. For extra emphasis let me say there is a
certain chic about this collection... be still my heart!!
Make no mistake the theatrics are all in place but my eyes
move to the clothes and not the peripheral crap that distracts from what the
main purpose of the event. The purpose is to show CLOTHES that will sell in
stores for fall 2015. My bad??? Now, if
you removed the ribbed button front knit skirt that appears in almost every
exit, there are amazing clothes, amazingly beautiful and understandable albeit
I can’t exactly say utilitarian. The layering might be a tad excessive but if
there was ever a collection that dictates dissection, this is it. There is no
question that the over the top styling hides and detracts from the treasures
here such as incredible jackets and even some denim. Personally the kilims are
spectacular, the pinstripes are not exactly of the hedge fund variety but
nonetheless tempting and the taped edge school boy blazers and coats rank right
up!
The degrade Kilims were works of art as were the fully
encrusted Kilim coats and all of brought to mind that Tisci was the man to
revive Gucci and not a fledgling. Anyway, my question is simply ... Will Tisci
continue on this path or will he revert back to birds of paradise and
Rottweiler’s? It would be sad if this was a one off collection that just teases
us with the man’s talent.
