Gucci fall 2018



My first question is... WAS the venue an operating room where they conduct lobotomies, abortions or gynecological exams or maybe sex changes? I’m quite sure there is some sort of esoteric and arcane explanation to it but I really don’t give a crap unless maybe the metaphor was that you need to surgically dissect  some of these get ups to find out what the collection really looks like.

Without diving into too much detail this over styled, over wrought, overly intentionally put together show might have actually yielded a few wearable pieces for the first time in accountable memory. Unfortunately for many they will be totally unaffordable. What really came to mind here ... what she couldn’t wear she carried which brings me to heads, snakes, and I was actually waiting for dead babies in this absurdly pretentious and purposely shocking display.

A collection like this certainly opens the door to throw it all up against the wall and see what sticks and then add some more to it until it's practically  blinding and falls off the wall again. No rhyme, no reason and rarely any semblance of beauty... just stuff… over done... over embellished... overly exaggerated stuff meant to shock.

So if this makes your heart race and your pulse quicken then I suggest you have that lobotomy sooner than later as this is nothing but some glorified wet dream of a demented costume party. I can’t wait to hear what the significance is of NY logo ( I wonder if the Yankees get a royalty).  Why is it that the more cerebral or faux intelligent the designer… the uglier the clothes!

I’M DONE.... PS nary an original thought in sight
