I love the tops! So fantastically structured. And that splash of color is extremely gorgeous.

Those glossy patent leather coats look much better in the style.it pics. Thanks for posting Kevinnn! Still hatin the linebacker jackets.

it's much more wearable than last season, definitely.

I think nicolas has progressed perfectly from s/s which was a totally unwearable collection, to a collection which is slightly less innovate, but much more wearable.
Although, i cant help but say that I am slightly disappointed. Many of the looks are beautiful, but none of it really overexcites me!
But those draped tops are really beautiful.

Def. one of the best shows this season!!!

I'm glad he pulled through. It is a perfect followup to the experimentation of spring and a lesson Galliano can use when extracting from the 60's.
Hard aggro chic. Beautiful.
Carine Roitfeld has been poking at him, one can tell. Well, at least she's sorted this season...

Ha ha, very good joke! Now show me the real collection

[spanglemaker]

I'm loving this, just beautiful. Pants are fabulous and tops are over the top.

I can't say I don't like this but a few things about it bother me. I definitely see what everyone is saying about the obvious Lanvin influence on a few of the pieces, namely the shapes of those patent leather dresses. The shape of those last 2 coats in post 88 are just horrible, they're not even flattering on the models! That said, it's a pretty good collection. Nothing particularly exciting about it, but all of the fall/winter shows ( for the most part ) have been pretty dull. I'm hoping McQueen will present us with something incredible.

I see one of the drapy tops and the dresses with prints must haves to me...hopefully they are affordable...
