lola love you but its not negative bias every work output is a moment to react to it as it gets presented, we had this conversation before and so far they all turned out to be true from the initial previews.
i like more believe what you see not what you wish it to be in this case.
i don't subscribe to this give 3 seasons and then join the bandwagon of negative reviews , its totally fair and more honest to judge every part as it comes out , till it gets better or not then opinions can change when its good.
we cant forget that tom had good review and bad ones depending on the season prada had also bad review for her first show look who she is now , marc also at LV then he switched, Tom´s first show at gucci did nothing till his second one where he decided to sex it up and walked out at the end , YSL famous Saint Laurent’s ‘Scandalous’ 1971 Collection a collection based on retro 40´s hookers etc was also met with push back and shock etc etc
those that are good and true geniuses showed that they are right in the and for many years.
i think versace is very rich with house codes like a Chanel is they need their Karl to take the right parts and move it forward for someone like Dario with no vision versace is not easy that's the difference.
the company that sold Versace to Prada thought to have a jewel in hand by taking someone from the hottest brand , but the reality of miu miu´s success is not and was never in Dario´s hands NEVER!!!!!
Dario was never a creative wunder kind at miu miu .....many people have positions because of politics and alliances with in the company and prada is classic place where this happened for 20 plus years ..why many leave and also come back and leave again.
I dont think Dario is the one for the job either. We all know who my candidate is.
But the thing precisely is that we haven’t seen a show. So far from now, everything that has been put out from him is making us having a negative biais towards what is coming in September but maybe he will switch things.
A lot of criticism tends to be so definitive about a whole project that is still in it « balbutiements » even more considering that the guy will probably be out.
What make the appreciation for thing more difficult to me today and that impact my reactions is the amount of informations we have today.
A bad collection or a bad moment is nothing to me as long as the designer has the vision. I have a respect for a vision. Riccardo is someone who had a vision at Givenchy even if for someone who started in 2005, he only got his real positive reactions in 2007.
Nicolas is very polarizing but there’s a vision for his Vuitton. Alessandro Michele on the other hand doesn’t seem to have a vision for Valentino.
And all the examples you mentioned had a sense of vision. It took time for Marc to get it but he found it.
A lot of comments across a lot of newly appointed CD is « the collection was lackluster, the tenure is going to be a disaster ». And when it’s applied for everybody, it’s really difficult to have a sense of balance.
And we all know that isolated Redcarpet moments are not really indicative of anything.
I’m satisfied with Haider because he seems to have a clear POV of what his TF is going to be. I’m confused by Sarah Burton at Givenchy because I expected her to replicate McQueen and I don’t know where it’s heading to.
I’m confused by JWA because it’s too much informations in 2 months. I like to go without expecting anything and I feel like I’m seeing someone testing the water.
In a ideal world, all those brands should have had celebrities wearing the FW2025 collections and not previews or custom for the new CD. It’s really frustrating.
