Thanks Lola for the reminder. Watching this collection made me so happy today!

So interesting to compare these two just from a show standpoint. The models from the SS23 show seem stiff, almost insecure in these kind of clothes, compared to the Gucci and YSL presentation where it is much more severe, seductive and strict - you believe (or at least I did haha) that these women actually enjoy wearing these clothes.

While we're on the subject and she made her Givenchy debut yesterday, here's Sarah Burton's latest show for Alexander McQueen, to remind everyone (even me) what she is capable of.

Phi S/S 2010 by Andreas Melbostad, one of my absolute favorite collections. The label was done just as he started getting critical acclaim.

Valentino Garavani's last collection - Haute Couture S/S 2008. There's probably a video somewhere, but I'm going to post a couple of images instead.
