In response to the current times when
designers and clients speak of buying” comfort clothes,” quite literally and figuratively
the meatball decided that these are her take on comfort clothes. Well, I’d like
to see her, actually no I wouldn’t, in that silver skirt or sprayed on second
skin jeans and tell me that she feels comfort in reliving her past thru those
clothes!!

Maria Grazia
Chiuri says “I want a leopard coat!” The Christian
Dior designer was in high spirits, illustrating the objective she set herself
with her most animated collection to date. “Now, we desire something that gives
us energy. Something completely different,” as she put it.
EXCEPT IT’S NOT DIFFERENT!

I
would like to come back to the fashion that started my career: the playfulness
that attracted me and my generation to fashion, and transform the Dior codes
through this attitude.” For Chiuri—a child of the 1970s—those roads had to lead
to Elio Fiorucci. I
guess the logo is the code!

And these images tell you
one thing... she has gone back to her roots without the slightest concept that
Fiorucci was for the young at a price that the young could afford so here we
have the absolute worst iteration of that by showing teeny bopper clothes that
retail in the thousands of dollars produced under the auspices of one of the greatest
heritage brands of fashion.

possession of a faulty thought process and as you can see hasn’t had an original
idea in her entire life other than maybe at Fiorucci 40 odd years ago except
what worked for Fiorucci does NOT work at Dior. These are clothes that make you
cringe that they carry the same name as the designer of the Bar jacket or the
elegance that sustained the brand with the designs of Marc Bohan or the
brilliance of John Galliano and then there is this pile of rehashed junk with
the old logo

This is “Goodwill Hunting”
in the truest sense of the word! I find it offensive to the viewer and frankly embarrassing
for the brand! It’s rather pathetic when a designer gets lost in their own
bullshit.
