lol I'm being too generous I know - it's just that most of the collections had some great peices in them even if overall they weren't too great
Just to prove that I didn't like everything: Stella McCartney, Versace, Dolce& Gabbana, DSquared Cavalli, etc etc did nothing for me

Junya, Jil Sander, YSL, Yohji, and Lanvin

Honorable Mentions:
Prada, Burberry Prorsum, Christian Wijnants, Sophia Kokosalaki, Hermes, Balenciaga, Helmut Lang, Miguel Adrover, Tess Giberson, Jean-Paul Gaultier
