OMG flawless!!! SO stunning! Modern, folkloric clothing. Mildly Galliano/Burberry-esque but done in such a modern/clean way. Stunning, stunning collection!
 
I like the equestrian elements - the first few looks are quite lovely.
 
You know, I want to like this guy, I really do, but he's making it harder and harder to do with the way he jumps around each season. I know he's still young, still experimenting and figuring out what it is that he has to say, but the fact that his collections don't relate to each other, that there's no recognizable thread running through them, no apparent pattern to them makes it kind of frustrating to watch.

As an aside, I really don't like that you can almost always see some established designer's aesthetic (or in some cases a specific collection from the past) in his work. This season it's Gucci F/W 08, with a side order of Balenciaga F/W 07.

It's a nice collection but I feel like there's something unfinished about it. I also don't like the styling.

Really? I kind of notice a small pattern in his work. Nothing signature, but definitely an inclination towards a certain style. He seems to like leather, especially in accessories, he uses a lot of thigh slits, and has some fascination with duffle coats. Some of it is almost secretary chic.
His prints are confusing though and he's definitely made his references too visible.
