7 looks and no show...it´s official: Elena has run out of money (or she tried to sell her kids on Ebay; but they didn´t offer her enough money).

Anyways, what´s this? Mcqueen and Theyskens 101 for Dummies??

She had a show. It was a pseudo intellectual salon presentation where they had a "nuanced" discussion of Gone With the Wind lol

credit where credit's due: Dasha and Anna look great and even elevate the presentation...

The worst thing is that I'm semi-convinced that she'd actually do that.

They really do. I'm kinda transfixed with them both in they're own ways in this lol.

Scale it back and pull apart the looks a bit more and there's actually a pretty decent small collection in here somewhere. If she wasn't so caught up in the costume look and looked more so the technical elements that make these something interesting could be made from this. Look 2 without the corset and even Dasha's top paired with pants made from the same material as the skirt component would work really well. Even removing some of the harder crinolines/support in the skirts and pair then with a circular or skewed cut t-shirt and this would feel more contemporary.

But I guess that goes against her ethos and ego of wanting to "create as an artist and as a disruptor" and not sellout despite also struggling to have enough finances because her stuff is difficult to sell. Her "pick me" personality is her own worst enemy because I see potential in this, it just needs to be relaxed a bit and not so grad collection in that conceptually and visually everything and the kitchen sink kind of way.
