Christian Lacroix - Designer

Will just casually drop Theyskens' name again. I really do think it's a fit.

It feels like the time of ressurrecting historied houses is a little passé.
Even such beautiful, beautiful names like Vionnet were not very successful.

I want to subscribe your words avonlea002 because you are so right.
And if have to make self-criticism, I dedicated last year more attention to unimportant things (who was heading to Chanel, how boring Maria Grazia can be) than to discover new designers.

And I want to change that for 2025!

Patrick Stewart of Standing Ground, maybe?

Patrick Stewart of Standing Ground, maybe?

I hate the name of his brand but he is a talent. His work reminds me so much of Alaïa/Gres.

He would be great at Vionnet.
If it wasn’t for the ugly brand name, he could have signed collections under his name.

I wish some execs were more like Diego Della Valle because they are missing on a talent like Patrick Stewart.

Something tells me his talent will not remain unnoticed, as he had several high profile celebrities wearing his clothes already and just won one of the LVMH prizes of this year. That will allow him to further refine his craft and add to his repertoire in the seasons to come.

The fact that he takes unhurried steps at a time with his brand is commendable when the industry is otherwise so rapidly changing. Let’s hope his approach will be rewarded with longevitable success.

Everytime I see the Theyskens name throwing around at TFS(me did that too), I just cannot stop thinking how the public would react if he pulls out those Rochas/Ninna Ricci-like pieces on the runway/red carpet in the current state of fashion, will he be trumpeted/appreciated like the Schiaparelli guy who indeed is not even half good as him? Or will he be in the same situation of his old days? Sometimes I just feel that maybe with a bigger PR/marketing machine at major brand, it is impossible to make his talent unseen.

I’d love to see him as the next guest designer at Gaultier.

I hope Galliano will take over

But John has his own house.
I don’t get why people want so much to see him take over other people brands when his own can be revived…

Can you imagine all the magic we missed because he's worked for so many other people.
