Alexandre Vauthier S/S 2023 Paris

His last couture show was fabulous! On the other hand, the RTW one is trashy. I get his clientele but that collection doesn't work for me at all. The colors are all over the place and so is the styling.
 
It looks like a regular Vogue Paris editorial badly copied by some third rate magazine. The perfect example of bad photography and styling making the clothes look even worse than they are.
 
Too bad Alt is no longer with us otherwise she'd have a field day.
 
Editorially, I'm not that mad at it. As an actual collection, I'm unsure. But it's a succinct one so it makes sense for the direction/look to be so direct just for the sake of making a point with it.
 
It looks very Elle France, maybe because it was shot by Hans Feurer.
I find that the photography, the model, and the styling killed the mood for what is a good collection.

Iris Law is not a strong enough model for this kind of concept. They should call one of the VPs regular girls.
Alt styled this but I feel disappointed because I know she can be executed this shoot much better than this. She did it in every issue of her magazine, so I don't know what happened.
Feurer is whatever, I never care for him, and his photography did anything for me.

But it is still a good collection.
The sequins jacket and the biker jacket are fabulous.
The minidresses are sexy and sultry but never vulgar.

Maybe with a different photographer, the presentation can be better.
 
I’ve always hated Hans Feuer’s photography. Nothing, literally nothing looks good when photographed by him.

Interesting that Emmanuelle styled it. So that means, Vauthier is working with her entire family right now. I hope their collaboration will be more effective in January because this is a mess.
 
The imagery reminds of Japanese soft p*rn from the mid 1980s. The kind of posters that beer companies used to give out to their distributors to display in bars. It kind of works?, but I don't like the proportions of the leg warmer boots.
