Nice draping and the buttons on some outfits fit so well. Also it doesn't seem messy or overloaded. Felicitous collection!

These guys make me wanna shout in joy. I can't wait for the rest, it already looks so skillful.

mullet,you are going to adore this even more. i saw some of the collection from when they showed in berlin a few weeks ago,last week,but i wanted to wait till today. but it's probably the strongest they've done,i think,in some years.....and that says a lot given they've been doing some good stuff lately.

hopefully,it'll get posted elsewhere soon.

Gah, I had seen a bit of the Berlin show earlier today (while looking for pics of the Paris presentation) but I just saw the full collection and it is quite gorgeous .. a bit reminiscent of their 05-04 shows in the way the softness of the materials is taking center stage... and they paired it well with more current elements like their harnesses and shiny materials.. really really lovely, and I'm loving the back shots, I'm happy style.com is finally taking notice of that!

That pleated skirt from the back is just insane!

So well put together and so masterful.

I'm so disappointed - why all the fur and bondage stuff, and the messy, poorly constructed jackets? The more wearable pieces are nothing to write home about either.

I wish some coats were made of more rigid fabric

They killed it . Ferociously true to their founding aesthetic, it is a manic Victorian equestrian with reconstructed tailoring, elevated. The back shots are truly magnificent. Thank you so much for posting

i think that's why i'm in love with it too. very reminiscent of a lot of their early stuff x 10 very strong statement.

i don't mind the use of fur myself because it really seems to flow with the collection. it's all very medieval and equestrian-like. i agree about the backs of everything....very interesting how they paid close attention to that aspect in terms of detail but it's very fascinating and beautiful. and can we talk about the shoes? i think it's strongest statement they've made with footwear in a long time. everything just feels very cohesive and thought out.

The clean deconstruction is made to perfection, every inch is thought to the extreme of detail, and every texture (tactile and visual) is use at it's best. PERFECT 10.
