sorry to have probably made a rather instructive impression before...

i pretty much agree with you on the points you have raised... it's quite unusual to deliver big shifts of silhouette in a pre collection also... and then, i don't even see these designs as being particularly representative of their past work - but maybe it's a good thing they left their one signature design - those bustier tops and dresses - back home...
