I don't see any difference between her RTW and HC collections... By the way, looking at this collection and comparing it with the ones from JG's time we see how basic (in the worst sense of the word, because something basic isn't necessarily bad) it is!

How is this couture?

 

[Vitamine W]

There's more couture in my sock drawer. Yawn sneeze bye girl.

For a house founded on the principles of optimism, this collection, along with 99% of MGC's tenure, is extremly sad. The perfect description for this collection is that it exists.

It took Galliano over a decade to go into auto-pilot at Dior, and even then it was still creative. She's been at Dior maybe 6 years and entered auto-pilot easily 2 years ago. There is actually no effort in this at all.

The reason why Galliano's autopilot was good, because he spent tten plus year building a good base. We all knew Maria's was rotten to the core, from the second Ruth Bell stepped out in that ugly straitjacket five years ago.

How the mighty have fallen and when they awoke found themselves thinking they worked for Armani RTW spring summer collection

 

[Bernie Flood]

Some of it are really beautiful and wearable. Very basic collection though

 

[GivenchyAddict]

Do we really need a thread for that? A real legitimate question.

 

[WAVES]

I got bamboozled in the beginning to think MGC was heading somewhere different. nope. same old boring crap.

what about the models choice? long gone are the days where we would see the best models of the year strutting down the catwalk.
sigh.

 

[reese06]

Just completely drab.

From what I've read, MGC tried to showcase the possibilities of craftsmanship with this collection. But honestly, I don't think she's the right person to do that. Some silhouettes are too bland and it might be caused by Maria Grazia being almost too pragmatic with her design process. However, the size of Dior has specific requirements and in that aspect, she's just perfect for the job as she can't do anything polarizing or riskier. I don't know, frankly speaking, I somehow accepted that this is (and will be) the state of the biggest brands and we shouldn't expect anything more than "proper clothes" from them.

Same thought here. I cannot understand why Dior continuously uses such a low budget looking casting — it definitely does not elevate the clothes (which definitely need it…).

How can Ami Paris have a casting that is miles away better than this?

 

[GivenchyHomme]

Same sh*t different day. A wardrobe made for a grandma.

That embellished white coat in the beginning after the black looks is ok, and that one crystal embroidered dress with pockets...those two looks are somewhat alright because my standards are so low for her. The rest looks like her old Valentino, actually there's one white dress with the v neckline that looks exactly like a pink Valentino gown Dakota Johnson wore to a premiere (they just added some mesh turtleneck thing underneath). Im also reminded of some old bland Chanel looks with some the designs. I really cannot understand her appeal, everything she does is so forgettable, it barely works for red carpet, and is too dull for editorials. I don't see how someone would spend so much money on these looks when they can get the same thing cheaper as RTW
