バイバイ Tokyo
Motonari Ono is a
collection that deserves an A+ for presentation. The first half of the show had the collection
being shown on dress forms that were carried down the catwalk by models and
then the second half was the conventional model as mannequin method of showing. That kind of originality is what makes the
fashion world take notice no matter what else happens on the runway and it kept
my interest thorough out. The clothes
have a decidedly Japanese tone but not in the Rei, Junya, Yohji kind of way;
the clothes exude an Asian kind of sweetness that you see many Asian women wearing
especially in Hong Kong and Tokyo. There is a school girl charm about them which
might make them a bit cringe worthy on a woman of a certain age. A little color might have upped the sophistication
level and elevated that saccharine look to something a bit more urbane.
Dress Camp can only be
described it he simplest of terms and comparisons. Here is my take away from this definitely
street wear savvy collection aimed at both young men and women. I would like you to think the following; what
if Addidas and Donatella and Gianni Versace collaborated with YSL (the original one) who
then met Roberto cavalla Cavalli and then jointly designed a collection with
Ricardo Tisci of Givenchy who then meets and teams up with Jeremy Scott. Take a look and see if you don’t agree! And you may want to add a dash of Jean Paul
Gaultier into the mix.
