It already starts to go downhill from post #7 onwards....
 
Its starts out nice but quickly goes down hill as stone skipper has mentioned, its an amateur attempt of Tom Ford's Gucci with bits of Balenciaga.
 
I do agree that there are some hints of Ford's Gucci era.

Still the materials are quite nice but I hope he did make some edited versions to sell because some are too risqué.

I think the customer will appreciate the details. I do like it. All of it.
 
OMG this is perfect. Totally, completely perfect. Nice progression from Fall...very strong collection. LOVE the shoes. Highlight of my NYFW and it's not even over...so happy for him!!!
 
He just couldn't leave well enough alone could he? The beginning was so crisp and promising, then it seemed like he was having fun with scarves but nothing beautiful came of it imho. The talents there but he needs to simplify his collections aesthetic's until he can fuse far-reaching ideas together seamlessly.
 
LOL those tassels at the end are so damn random and unnecessary. I do love the outer wear though.
 
How could he go from that strong beginning (those "detective" coats :heart:) to that tapestry explosion on the final 5 looks? And boy, are those shoes vile...
But, I think this is a case of good outweights the bad. I especially like the black fringed pieces, and the outerwear in general.
 
I still haven't figured out his aesthetic, it's so different from season-to-season and his ideas are always heavily borrowed from other designers -- I hate when people scream out "copycat" when seeing collections, but with him, I get it. The only thing I've figured out from him is that his muse is Carine Roitfeld, and it's beyond awkward how much every collection looks like her. So maybe that's his aesthetic, the Rotifeld look. Weird, whatever. I actually sort of thought he had potential with his early collections, but this is the nail in the coffin, I'm over it.
 
I was really unsure of what I thought but after watching it all in motion, I'm in love :blush: the tailoring at the beginning is amazing and then I love all those dresses in motion. They do look a little heavy but I can't deny they're still beautiful. Best collection of NYC so far.
 
It felt like jacked up Reed Krakoff at first, and then later, just jacked up.
