I'm still not sure about the clothing, but I really don't like the music, it's not going with the runway walking thing!
 
The clothes suck a*s. It effectively looks more like ready to wear than couture. There's been very few looks I actually like. And he's doing the SAME silhouettes as last season PLUS the ready to wear show. I don't understand this sh*t.
 
OMG, the same again! It's like I'm missing something, the looks are not sophisticated enough or not edited enough. Kind of a bit amateurish. Not finished enough. A pity.
 
have seen a few dresses, just like the previous collection, boring
 
Ugh now I can post my full thoughts.
That was sloppy. The tailoring in the beginning was unbelievably bad. This is just a mashup of his previous show mixed in with his PaP show. There were very few dresses I actually liked. I just can't believe how much the press is going to be eating this show up. This collection was just extremely unoriginal. The dresses that I did like were just simple dresses from Dior's past that Raf embroidered on. It's complete BS if you ask me.

i know what you are missing... its Galliano :(
 
At first I hated it, then I kind of liked it, then I hated it again and then there were some dresses in the end to die for so I don't know what to say. I gues you can see an improvement from the last show, but I still miss Galliano.
 
That was breathtaking. Flawless, actually. From the makeup to the shoes to the color palette to the ending gowns, it was all absolutely flawless. The dresses with the sheer panels were some of my faves and of course the embroideries look divine. There was a pink dress that Zuzanna wore that was paired with metallic green heels, which I'm going crazy over.
 
Absolutely beautiful, the set and the music was wonderful
and speaking for the clothes they contained the minimalism expectant of Raf but brought something new to combat his critics for using the same shapes the past few seasons. I really think this confirms Raf's abilities in many ways and im very pleased with what i just saw

What? This was all either the same stuff he's already done or it's just some new, reworked dress from the archive. There weren't any new original silhouettes.
 
Is a tough call. I liked all the new bits (those cute little tops over the bustiers, the trumpet gowns) but man oh man was it boring when it wasn't good. Half of it put me to sleep and the stuff I did like wasn't making me jump out of my seat. He just needs to be a bit more exciting, I was expecting so much more with that beautiful set :(

I mean new in the work Raf has done so far for the brand, referencing shapes in the archive of the house he is lead designer for is expected and allowed, i dont see it as a negative
 
I won't judge until I've seen every look and the whole collection. But that shot looks beautiful though. He's getting there. Really pumps up the setting.
