Oh my god, i haven't looked at the collection yet, but are those embellished crocs? why!!

^ Apparently it's part of a collaboration he's done with them. Sad but true.

It's very hit and miss to me. Some looks were really good, the last part of the show was the best actually, all those lingerie-inspired pieces were quite interesting, too but on the other hand he used that painfully ugly fur and crocs, and those random flowers. I prefer his flowers from the s/s 2014 collection, he used that motif in a different, fresher way there. Here it just doesn't work at all.

Could you link to the full collection too? Would make it easier...

It started off really great then from about look 9 it became a bit shaky. My problem with him is how he executes some of the tricky ideas he has. They end up being cumbersome, unnecessary and drag the rest of the collection down with them. I really wish he based the entire collection on those first few amazing looks.

I thought last season was really strong for Christopher but this, this is terrible......

He's unstoppable

Menswear was so much better... I can't figure out what I think about this, it´s too much information. Some dresses are beautiful, but all become kinda unforgivable with these St. Christopher's pieces, sooooo pretentious...

It is a pretty balanced show. If you don't like a lot of it, you will still find something.
Neat seeing the religious imagery in some other context than goth or punk or ~...those kinds of things.
And --I never say this but I can't help but feel so much of what has been popular before or other designers' collections. Though I don't really follow his work enough to know it well. All this stuff from just 6-10 years ago, not older.
