I agree. To be honest, there's nothing that I really love here. I just don't understand why 99% of the time, graduate shows are so pretentious.I've never understood why graduate collections seem to always be based purely off of sewing techniques, if that makes any sense. (i.e. Derek Lawlor's coat) Just a thought that occurred to me, not necessarily all of these designers in particular.
And I'm not seeing anything that looks especially 'fresh' so far...
