Okay, I give up, not that I had high expectations from this man but what was this? How many audiences is he “speaking” to and where are they wearing these stratospherically expensive, unflattering and unattractive clothes? Aside from the color palette which was kaleidoscopic to say the least, I want to know what’s the message here? Where’s the brand DNA.... it sure isn’t gladiator sandals or Doc Martens!
You would think that a brand of this stature, which has been fading fast, would avoid fingertip length sleeves, puddling pants and floor sweeping jackets, not to mention blue jeans. Rompers? ... really! Who needs generic clothes at this price from this brand ...maybe he thinks that separates in taffeta are luxe ... well, they could be but not here? In essence this collection is about color and fabric and surely not about design.
I might also wonder about the styling... some models look like painted ladies and others look like no makeup and might I ask what woman carries a leather bag with a chain strap when wearing an evening gown? There are pieces that look like they came from Chicos and lots of pieces that look like some signora whipped them up on her Singer... no pattern necessary! Hair dyed to match the dress; it’s like amateur hour at FIT. with nearly 100 exits one would think they might organize how this collection was shown instead it looked like who ever got dressed first or grabbed whatever outfit they wanted was pushed out no matter if supposed daywear or evening wear ... what are they thinking
