Araks F/W 08.09 NYC

The sound track is really well done, I think. And the clothes are awesome! Here is the link to the video of most of the catwalk show. The best thing about the collection is that the fabrics appear to be opaque until you get close enough to see that they are really transparent. Brilliant!

the soundtrack is great. i can't believe they played Can
i think i prefer the first half of this collection, though i'm not sure where i would draw the line. it lost some of its initial fire toward the end. i can't judge until i see pictures and details. i too love the hints of transparency.

I was under the impression that Araks was solely a lingerie brand?

Lovely music...the clothes are rather interesting. Very basic, clean cuts. Reminding me of Comptoirs des Cotonniers, right now silhouette-wise

I really dislike this collection. It isn't wearable at all. I can sort of understand perhaps the "oversized" aesthetic.. but it just doesn't work for me here. It looks more like silk potato sacks. It just looks a mess.

oo I like the frames in post #4. didn't like the some of the in my opinion overdone and quite ugly use of see-through materials in some ss08 shows and don't like it here either.

I don't like it at all. Not at all flattering and the designer makes horrible references to Marni. Marni is actually an amazing line. Stop.

The looks look a bit recycled, and I wasn't crazy about those Steve Urkel glasses. That tank top with the feathers is driving me a bit crazy. The only thing that I was really excited about was the fact that they used Spoon by Can on their soundtrack. I love that song.
