While I agree with diorling over her lack of venturing into new areas...it's still a great collection. She really makes couture modern and fresh without gimmicky themes or celebrity endorsements.

coconut said:what i'd like to ask is - if it's modern and fresh (keeping in mind it's pret-a-porter not really couture) than who's the client .

MulletProof said:me too
by the way, where can i see the entire collection?
Meg said:Why do people think this can't be couture? Because it's not over the top and ostentatious? Couture literally is off-the-peg, or made to measure. Even drawsting pants can be made to measure, to fit a specific client. That makes it couture. The craft behind it makes it couture and I think with collections like this, pictures do it no justice because it's not over the top and obvious.

i could wear these to parties and openings, to dinners, i'd wear it anywhere really
(excuses but i dont understand clearly the rest of your question, i dont know which skirts you are talking about)
Ya, the The Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture has specific rules regarding what is and isn't Haute Couture.helena said:how does one define what is couture? Is there some set of 'rules' set to formally classify couture from pap? does the french fashion establishment set this in the same way it does with aoc's in wine.
i'd like to answer that...coconut said:so basically a client for anne-valerie would need great taste and a heavy wallet - a not so common combination unfortunatelly.
she's been in moscow for several seasons now, and most stores put her near ann d and sharon wauchob and margiela. considering that her clothes are for the client who likes the reconstructed. which not really right of course with this new tender mood she's in.
skirts - i got stuck on the first picture in the thread. short voluminous skirts seem to only work on very tall and leggy ladies, non?
ahh, thank you luxmode, it takes quite a while to put her collection up on the main sites while valentino is almost up on the same dayluxmode said:the collection is up at vogue.de (i'm a bit hesitant to post pics of it bc better quality ones will be up at the other vogue sites tomorrow, i think...german vogue's pics aren't that great )
