It's pretty unifromly awful. I agree with Lena, I think she's loosing it (Rei not Lena!). I think shes bored and doesn't know where to turn to. Mick Jagger is about as "uncool" as you can get. I think that actually annoys me more than the clothes. I have no interest whatsoever in paying homage to Mick Jagger!
Nqth is correct as usual in his referencing of previous collections. It's very similar to the AW (2001 I think) collection with the garish prints in the velvet fabrics, but at least those were "abstract" and not based on a very recognisable popular culture motif. The tartan jackets nqth referred to are the best bits by far - looks like very interesting fabric, although it is a copy of the small jackets on big jackets thing from AW2000 (which was, indeed, the best comme collection for years).
I was hoping for something simple for a change, getting back to colour, fabric, basics. This sort of gimmick is so dissappointing.

. Yea, it is pretty awful.
I suppose both!
