Yeah, what a bummer, their Fall show was one of my favorites last season.
All the swim pieces are just blahhh, get them out of here. The print they used is ugly. The grey front buckle dress had the most potential, but I would have gone for more rectangular versus square hardware. Way more bad than good I'm afraid.

Really? I'm very impressed with this collection. There are so many gorgeous shapes which are both interesting and flattering. Skin is shown but it still manages to look very tasteful. I also LOVE the shades of purple they used.

Yeah, I can't say I see much bad either (aside from the buckles). This is really sexy, even moreso than usual. Love the silhouettes.

the dress on Karlie looks rather stunning I have to admit
I have to agree with HeatherAnne, here. The fall collection was so beautifully done and this is just a letdown after that.
There's nothing that pulls me here.

This is not the best they could do, but I like this a lot better than the stuff other designers have come up with this season.

They love their cut-outs.

Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs make for mighty good mistresses of discipline. This season, the CFDA/Vogue finalists took inspiration from straitjackets, and thus did binding, belting, and strapping make their way into the brand's idiom. But that S&M-inflected discipline was less compelling than the design discipline at work here: This was an exceedingly focused collection, and it considerably elevated the trademark Cushnie et Ochs vixenish look. As a case in point, consider the black viscose bustier top with a reverse halter neckline, which the designers showed with a pair of matching sharply cut, buckle-detailed pants. The look was sexy in a very high-end way, and the conceptual elements were applied with (ahem) restraint. The same went for a fluid, buckle-detailed strapless gown, and the body-con dress strapped by elastic. (The show-opening one on Karlie Kloss looked particularly good, but then, it would.) Perhaps the most interesting developments here, though, were the swimsuits, a natural brand extension for Cushnie et Ochs, and the seamless knits. The latter made for an apropos new medium for the brand's vocabulary of cutouts and skintight-ness. Very slick, girls. Very slick.
