it looks to me like crash or clash rather than crush. a clash between pieces of clothing. and then sparks. this combustion becomes the content of the work.
this collection makes me think of adorno: "the mystery is between them, and it cannot be invoked otherwise than in the figure they create together".
excellent. Adorno speaks of course of the metier of Beethoven's late period, the rise and fall from hope to catastrophe. He says that out of the silence comes the explosion. The primal moment.

The best part of the Style.com review spoke of compression of the body. Via those straps but also in the piled constriction. I imagine perhaps a point of silence before the garmientiary body explodes propelling the spirit deep into the cosmos. It was the theme of CdeG (and I thought Sarah Burton) last season. This season we've also the explosiary big bang prints at ie Fendi and MiuMiu. And bees. And the geometric sweet honeycomb cells of The Queen. It seems that McQueen is still and the only brand over there at PPR with any due integration.
