[SHSH]

I am really impressed he never fails me, the structure was so strong and fitted just beautiful with the colours he chose!

I'm going to ignore the first half of the collection and work on my obsession with the second half. The shoes?? NO COMMENT.

 

[gomtik]

Goodness!! It's horrible! Quite disappointing. What is the purpose pf sending the exact same (in my opinion, awful) design down the runway in a multitude of different colours? This was bad. Not avant-garde. Not inspiring. And (obviously) not wearable.

 

[Elijya]

Well, I still believe he's one of those who define fashion.

The use of materials is amazing...

 

[Foxie-Pooh]

The mens collection is half decent but I'm really not feeling the womens...

 

[junegloom]

The details are extraordinary and make everything look plenty better. From far away I wasn't a fan but up close, count me in.

 

[Teacup]

I like the dresses, but the menswear was definitely better than the rest of the collection.

 

[jenah]

i like this a lot!
a tad disappointing just because he is usually my favorite...
but the details are exquisite and the menswear is nice too.

I want beauty

Love this collection Liked it from afar, LOVE it in detail! Looks like I'm in the minority with this one, but when it comes to fashion, I'm not hard to please

The first impression I had of this collection was a mix between Studio 54 and Star Wars' Tatooine.

Ha! Yes. I could see myself rocking out to the Max Rebo Band in one of these outfits.

some of the tops look like piñatas, but i liked mostly all of the stuff, menswear is so cool btw

 

[geekigirl]

The shoes remind me a lot of the outfits in Tron. Minus the glowing of course.

^ OMG, I totally thought of the same thing.

 

[dior_couture1245]

Well, Nicholas has been inspired by "Tron" before...SS 07 was ALL Tron!

 

[UNiQFashionista]

major disappointment

 

[fouroclock]

Both the menswear and the womens' were well done. I'm just thinking of other designers scratching their heads and seeing how this stuff is made. It also evokes what McQueen did for Givenchy, except there's no light fixtures needed.

And if I was a rich raver/hipster, I'd be breaking the piggybank to buy this stuff. This is so Fifth Element!

I'm dying over the detail shots, masterful indeed, and the incredible textures, the shine, the color palette. Overall, there were a few duds amongst the crowd but a fantastic collection nevertheless
