Alaïa Resort 2026 Paris

When he’s less contrived, less desperate and less strained and thinking of women first, he actually conjures up some really impressive separates. The leathers especially, are lush and luxe; the purple leather jumpsuit is strangely magical: Very true to Azzedine’s offerings of a sharp but effortless graphic silhouette. That gray dress with the pleated skirt with a touch of structured peplum and girdle is probably the strongest and still sensual silhouette he’s designed. Impeccably gorgeous. Bink’s deep navy velvet gown is a very close runner up.
 
Not so bad…
I like the Balmain SS2013 look on Mona…
How ironic. Phoebe copied Alaia, Pieter is using the same exact references as her from Azzedine and then it looks less fresh.

I used to love Alaia. The bags, shoes and clothes were great. They used to make the best boots with high heels with Chanel.

I just can’t with his work.
Much like some members have an aversion for Matthieu Blazy at Chanel, I have the same sentiment towards Pieter’s work for Alaia.

According to the Vogue Review, this was extremely difficult to make:
As for the vivid pink, long double-satin bias-cut number? “Very easy to look at, extremely difficult to make,” Mulier attested. “That’s a funny story,” he continued, “because I made it for one of my best friends for a wedding first. We looked at it and we liked it so much that we made a little collection of them.” Better than a double-take, it’s a stop-you-in-your-tracks kind of dress.

The square toe with that hideous belt and white coat is a lot. The sheer mesh pants are a mess. The best look is the leather twisted bustier with plisse skirt. Really not great and mostly dumb looking clothes.

I think just looking at the iconic silhouette on Grace. I dont see a fitted hip with draped bodice at all. Lots of Carine Roitfeld peplum though.
 
Galliano can bias cut in his sleep. I don't think it's really interesting to know that a piece was laboured over anymore or how difficult it was to make. Somehow him saying takes the magic away.

I went to look at and purchase some Maison Charles lights that are handmade. Instead of telling me how difficult and labour intensive it is to make them, they let me see the atelier and the artisans working which let me come to my own conclusion on the amount of work and worth instead of saying « it's sooooo hard to make this » ....
