sorry about the similar pics in the previous post, I'm admittedly hotlinking and it appears the code is either "a*s" or something of that nature , so the closeup had to go.

Thanks for posting MP. Looks like they won't be disappointing me this season, it's brilliant as usual. I can't wait to see a 360 view or video, because that is what makes them such geniuses, their detail to every single angle. Gosh, I love the way their designs are so masculine, but balanced with sexy draping which gives it a touch of femininity. The printed pieces are out of this world

Some details, I'm sorry I can't post them all and in better quality, I'm late to see the doctor.

Aah, this is what Paris is about.

Amazing!

What a tease with the detail pics! And I couldn't find them at stylebistro (because I'm incompetent). They are of course, swoon-worthy like no other collections detail shots, because I swear they pay more attention to details than anyone. Pleasantly surprised by the shoes, I don't usually favor their footwear like I do their clothes.

Amazing headpieces

Paris gets me so excited and AF Vandevorst is one of the reasons why. the details are perfection; the cuts and draping are heavenly; and the the marching band reference has been used in such a unique way

supports my theory yet again why belgians gain respect from me

 

[Zazie]

UGH....I DIE!! !! After last season's awkward collection, this is completely breath-taking...though a lot of Ann D.-Haider Ackerman inspiration which they have taken to a higher level of sophistication. It shows their mastery of the cut and drape, of colours, textures, materials.

 

[Squizree]

They've had stronger collections and more interesting ideas, but this is still none the less so beautiful and so intricately well-crafted.

Those layered pieces with the scarves and fringe are too delicious....especially the last two looks in #7 and the first in #8. And is that a paisley print? That's the first time paisely has ever seemed remotely palatable to me ....

 

[Not Plain Jane]

^ Agree about the layered, scarf looks, so very pretty. I actually liked the russet colour, even if it does seem like more of a fall colour. There are some great pieces in this collection. Very innovative. The deconstructed military-band-leader looks are fun.

I love it. Great color palette, very cohesive, amazing styling. I just love that very feminine but strong look that only Belgian designers seem to master so amazingly well.

And I think this is the first time ever that I think the headpieces actually enhance the collection. I normally hate everything they put on models' heads in fashion shows It looks cool here because the headpieces are interesting but not ridiculous.
