I would believe if someone told me that this was Collina Strada with bigger budget. Coach has been such a disappointment, the first Vevers's collections were very focused and actually promising, and then he went for the Gucci route. Now it's not even Gucci-lite, it's just high street via thrift shop. The more experimental pieces seemed to be influenced by JWA's Loewe, but they didn't work in the context of Coach, same with the awkward sense of humour.
