Mine are:
1. Comme des Garçons (clothes)
2. Junya Watanabe (clothes)
3. Raf Simons (clothes+show)
4. Dries van Noten (clothes)
5. John Galliano :-)))) for the only "show".

Sorry Milano:-)

 

[Johnny]

I suppose I meant clothes shown at the particular shows in question. In other words, not just the presentation and on the other hand not just labels that are favourites; rather, the particualr clothes presented as a collection.

I shoud probably have added Raf myself, but I'm not sure if I liked this more for the presentation and the purity in that presentation rather than the pieces themselves.

 

[Scott]

For starters:

Walter Van Beirendonck(just too cute not to!)
Raf Simons
Dior Homme(because I liked this approach)
and I liked what I saw so far from Dirk Schönberger

I can't really make a formidable list as I haven't seen everything in full stretch,if you will.

Johnny,where did you find Stephan Schneider images?

My list so far (without having seen neither Ann Demeulemeester, nor Caroll Christian Poell, nor Cloak), in no particular order

Sconberger
McQueen

A pretty good season overall, but Fall usually is.

I miss seeing CCP during the presentations. He was like the Jurgi Persoons of Milano. Perhaps my favorite menswear designer of all.

Thanks Johnny

[raijin]

I'm sure CCP will top my list when I see it

That being said.. I wasn't too keen on any of the shows I've seen so far except for Raf and Giles was interesting.

Linea (since it is actually done in 'collections' unlike c diem) and Ann Dem will be up there as well when I see them.
