Once upon a
time the brand and the designer had this flawless reputation with a look that was
quickly and easily associated to them both. He lived the lifestyle of his
customer and alas as with most of these heritage brands, it is now in the hands
of some over hyped, overrated and so-called designer who threw way all that was
the very elegant, sexy and slick work of Valentino Garavani. Don’t get me wrong
the original was also capable of the molto signora!
AS ALWAYS CLICK ON THE IMAGE TO ENLARGE
This season after
seasons of just silly over blown
clothes whatever his name is delivers this meaningless, pedestrian, generic wildly expensive
collection (the term in the loosest sense of the word) ... there is not one
discernible trademark look except the wrong ones which are the ridiculous sheer
moomoos and over blown printed caftans which will be knocked off … maybe… for
one tenth of the price.
There are
far better-looking clothes at H&M, Zara, Uniqlo and I’m sure if you are a
treasure hunter at TJ Maxx and Marshalls. He should be embarrassed to show his
face after what he thinks is an appropriate collection for the season. I can’t
even discuss the men’s since it is even more meaningless and absurd than the
women’s.
This brand must
hemorrhage money like a hemophiliac as the only things that seem to have a trademark
are the pyramid studded shoes. its n wonder they want out of the Fifth Avenue
store!!
che triste stato di cose.... apparently he and his ex design partner were quite evenly matched
when it came to their collective and singular lack of talent and vision and how
to preserve a brand that warranted a much longer recognizable life.
