Here’s what I know:
The collection has come alive: color, venue, silhouette,
details, styling. It’s like a set of defibrillator paddles has been used and the
brand has been brought back to life. Gone is the lugubrious monastic and almost
funeral darkness of the location and the monotony of the clothes and thank God
no denim.

Sheer exists but with linings for the most part. Gone is the
death march of zombie like nubile vestal virgins.

A variety of silhouettes has appeared and it no longer looks
like every other collection that they ever did together.

there but actually reinterpreted as all archival references should be...not
just by talking about it.

In my opinion he has opened the door to a far savvier client
rather than just one who loves the name. There are clothes from the most unadorned
to those which will stretch far into the mid 5 figures.
No blah blah blah necessary other than for insight not for
motivation or inspiration.

... yessss. .. BUT this was absolutely off
to a very encouraging if not propitious start
