c'mon nowfashion, keep up :lol: I was gonna say it looked like same old until I saw the second pic. But I won't judge off two pictures
 
nowfashion should be called "Afterhoursfashion". The clothes look interesting but that headgear is creeping me out
 
too many people on nowfashion and I cant see the show :(
 
Lame, unflattering and a big Prada SS2010 feeling...that's my first impression
 
very strange, seems a bit underdeveloped..
but he has an entirely new team right? maybe they're still trying to get the hang of it!
 
It starts out nice but quickly goes down hill , horrible trousers , a big Prada influence but gone horribly wrong. I get the whole jetson futuristic vibe , but its really getting repetitive . The vaguely 70s dresses at the end are nice but overall , not impressed.
 
It's kinda bland- does he really have a new team to work with?...hmm.....strange show, and benches breaking.
 
I feel like I'll be needing quite a while to get more familiar with this one.

Looks like a more messy version of the resort collections, I'm not sure neither about the cheap fabrics nor the silhouette and styling :ermm:
 
Balenciaga looks pretty bad as of late, and it could very well have to do with both Sebastien Peigné and Alistair Carr not working with the house anymore - You look at both designer's work and even though there is more than a hint of previous Balenciaga in it, it has a much more uncontrived flair about it than what Nicolas Guesquière is doing on his own - These clothes look like a forced, fashion-y statement and do not come up as being instantly desirable as previous Balenciaga smash hits such as the brocaded silk blazers, the motorcycle jackets, the aviator shearlings or archival egg-shaped coats.
