So I know now whats wrong with his shows, "The show"
The styling is always off, the accessories are horrible(usually the shoes too), and the venue/stage never seems appropriate for the collections.
The clothes are actually really beautiful and incredibly well made.
It's like the same pieces (from previous collections), with different colors.
But, since I pretty much always like Balmain, I loved this. Especially the color palette.
His coloring book is vibrant, that I can give. But all the details are so frustrating, there's barely any proper portion in the whole collection. He should hire an expert in each field, sweater, jacket, pants and so on to learn the essentials. Seeing such a mass market doll production is not comfortable.
Not as bad as usual and actually look sexy, perhaps most of all, I love the cast, seldom we see women models and not pre pubescent these days. That said, the sequence is messed up, some kept a very close close distance to the one behind and some were ridiculously far lol.
That's is a collection that we can take serious. I like Balmain, I like what Oliver is doing for the house, even that I found very hard to wear Balmain. I don't know what you guys think but I in my mind I put him and Jeremy Scott in the same place: designers that at least are doing their job.
