From the Vogue.com
review “As a designer with a lifelong obsession with layering youth
references of the past into his work, Slimane was in his element, finally being
able to riff off the energy—and the wardrobes—of a live subculture…. Hearing
that this pileup of pieces that might’ve been found on a kid’s bedroom floor is
not exactly what grown-ups perceive as the output of a luxury goods house would
be music to Slimane’s ears.”

Well, here’s
my take ... Hedi you need some help ... a therapist maybe as you are no longer young
and no longer designing for kids … this is Celine where a denim “Levi” jacket
is $3500, a logo tee is $375 and a pair of jeans is $770. So Hedi my fragile
friend who the fuck is buying this pile that you presented for spring 2021. Sadly,
it reminds me of a designer who is struggling with arrested development and
might even more sadly be compared with Jeremy Scott who is also obsessed with
the skate boys and the fact that he is no longer 22.

Aside from
that, there are just a few other issues like we are living thru possibly one of
the worst times in the fashion business or any retail business for that matter
and I highly doubt there are many men who can afford this that will actually
want to look like this. I usually pick apart the casting as being too young for
the clothes but here it’s not a case of miscasting it’s more of a case of how many
trust fund baby boys are there in the world?

Lastly,
Hedi, the collection comes off as rather tone-deaf to the times and has no
cohesive thread to the women’s in terms of the client or look so Hedi WTF are you
thinking? Maybe Monsieur Arnault will have to
remind you that your job is not only about feeding and satisfying your ego!
