So here’s the deal with Oscar for Resort 2017.. There are
some positively exquisite pieces, some positively dowdy and matronly pieces,
there are some ho hum who cares pieces and yet the collection does make sense
as a whole. The sweater and skirt ensembles work for the most part and have
become part of the ODLR DNA.

That is wildly detrimental to all of it is silly trendoid
Chloé/ Celine styling, a model who doesn’t stand straight up and needs to be
slapped across the shoulder, the absurd
pigeon toed stance, that pre Raphaelite hair and some sad shoe choices. On the
bright side, there was a pair of black patent pumps with a leopard heel what
was fabulous.

Color yes, fabrications yes although some styles were a tad
heavy handed and seemingly on their own the overall collection works and in my
opinion has salability on its side. I just wish Copping would play the hand
dealt to him and not cross the line to trendoid and referenced. Maybe it is my
impression that the polish is missing and that disturbs me as Oscar was always
just perfection when it came to grooming and accessories. There would never be leather shoes or belts
with gowns unless metallic and surely never a slouched model with turned in toe
stance. Does no one speak or see the harm it does when these things slip by
thru the cracks or are just overlooked. Perhaps one of my biggest gripes is the
length issue which fluctuates wildly, the below the knee looks are so aging while
the hover at the knee looks are beautiful.
