With all due respect , TOTT
Some of us LIKE this melange of elements - 80s , or whatever .
I only said I was getting a bit bored, please don't take this as an attack or insult somehow!

ACTUALLY your twin?Originally posted by Acid@Jan 27th, 2004 - 12:37 am

I have a twin, and we might have a tripleganger... I've seen this guy who looks exactly like us, and it has occured that people have come up to me and greeted me like an old friend; they have not been friends of my brother or me and "know me" very well. Bizarre.
I love the movement of the skirts(trousers?) in contrast with the more fitted torsos. It has a very moody and cerebral combination about it...á la Rick Owens/Demeulemeester. But maybe with more traditional/classical elements like the pleated kilt-style detailing and parkas etc.
Overall,this is my favorite from him.
PS...Love the group of tuxedos!
My ONLY criticism is the low-rise trousers....I don't like those on women let alone do I like them on men.

(quoted from an article on a post in the dior homme msn group)
"....Mr. Slimane seems more expansive in his message, and more at ease in the house, having won concessions to design in the future under his own name, whether that means women's clothes or even a line of furniture. Wherever his unstrung mind leads him, Mr. Slimane has loosened up, mixing sharp tailoring with pieces that have the nice, cheap feel of the street. Skinny suits had a more boyish look, with soft shirts over striped T-shirts, and there were more separates, like a white quilted leather jacket and turtlenecks with leather elbow patches. Halfway through the show, rows of hot lights descended from the ceiling and out came half a dozen guys in maxi-kilts and tough leather — proof that Mr. Slimane is feeling more free."
"As for Slimane - who recently renewed his contract with Dior after three years of blockbuster success - he offered a fresh take for next winter on the ultra-slim, androgynous, youthful silhouette that has become his calling card.
Is the French designer growing up or just in search of a simpler look? Either way, he has traded in the underground rock star chic of previous collections, opting for a less tormented look with wider appeal.
"This is the wardrobe I wanted - pieces that are easy to wear," Slimane told AFP.
The designer has not forsaken his penchant for basic black, but allowed other colours and patterns to edge their way into the collection, in the form of tweed jackets, grey wool knits and Prince of Wales check. Even the duffel coat made an appearance on the Dior catwalk, along with striped T-shirts.
But fear not, Slimane fans: he sent out plenty of models made over in his slim likeness in T-shirts, jeans slung low and belted around their slight hips and straight-cut jackets.
The designer let his flashier side show with a burgundy jacket studded with tiny silver spikes and an overcoat in lurex tweed. Short jackets with satin lapels or long kilts should please his female clients, like Oscar-winning actress Nicole Kidman. "

Thanks for this last post , Christopher
My final verdict , after all the excitement and a good night's sleep , is that this collection is a superb riposte to John Galliano's men's collection .
Hedi seems to be saying , " I can do outrageous and hyperimaginative , but I can do it in a far far less ' camp ' way ."
The jupe/culottes are for the catwalk and thse nightclubs where the gay male fashionistas can strut their stuff . The main body of the collection is close to the edge , but is rooted in the REAL world , where the clothes have , let's admit it , GOT to sell.
Hedi's collections up to the present have been for the 6 foot and over , rake-thin adolescent ' boy' , and I detect a marginally less constricting cut and a slightly wider age group appeal than heretofore .
Galliano for men , imho , has yet to equal this ' maturely conceived ' collection on the part of Hedi .
And dat's de troof !
