Speaking of zombie brands kept alive by their fragrances I feel like the way he works around one gimmick and develops it fits Viktor and Rolf better

I think that‘s a very unfair dismissal for how much Stewart has evolved his work over the past years since he emerged on the scene, I‘m sorry.

Of all the people setting up their own labels, Standing Ground is one of the few where it‘s all about the steady refinement of the designers' craft and vision in a way that has gone lost since the early 2000s.

I don‘t think he should rush into a big maison to become it‘s new CD so fast when we see how short-lived the most recent top jobs were replaced again, but he definitely has the talent and potential for a lasting career in top-tier womenswear design.

Lol congrats on having 'an" opinion. If anything Lantink samples and recycles old V&R ideas, with less fortunate results. In fact V&R have declined the Gaultier couture guest spot for several seasons now cos they're pretty much holding their own in couture. Despite your TikTok fuelled perspective. Thank you.

A bit of a passionate response for a brand that has not been part of the fashion conversation since SS10 no?
