I usually like Eckhaus Latta, but this is a miss also, am I the only one seeing huge Helmut Lang influence in almost every collection we have seen during this nyfw?

Cole Mohr went from the cute rebel boy to a single dad in the suburbs of Detroit, who can’t live without craft beer.

More Helmut Lang! GOD, PLEASE! MAKE IT STOP!

Seriouosly, it's ridiculous. Follow Endyma on Instagram if you so revere the legacy of the man but for the love of christ, let go of him...he's been retired 17 years! New York is the crazy ex-girlfriend (á la Fatal Attraction) that just won't accept he's not there anymore. He's gone for good, sweetheart...

Tragically Helmut Lang looking. How can you even sleep at night knowing you're designing a collection that owes everything to HL? Do you have a conscience?

I'd guess it looking like helmut lang is the point as he's literally wearing a COWBOY shirt.

They so wish. This is to Helmut what a chimp fingerprinting with its own poo is to art. Insulting.

Never got why anyone would pay money for their shantytown rags. But a fool and his money are soon parted and all that.

I don't think they're trying to hide the fact that it's inspired by Helmut Lang. From the male model casting to the slicked hair to the industrial music soundtrack to the literal Helmut Lang tank worn by the designer at the end--it's pretty blatant in self-aware way. I also see nods to Gaultier. It's not my favorite collection from them because it seems a bit auto-pilot but I definitely enjoy it more than most collections during NYFW.
