Giles S/S 09 London

[leyla m.]

this was actually very commercial and very Giles at the same time. .. not an easy task when you are GILES!!
so i think it is very positive.
a strong collab with LEE COOPER for his jeans (its their 100th anniversary) and a revamped logo which is a play on the Chanel interlock and could also be mistaken for the Gucci one. love it!
the Pacman reference fit just right in there with the headgear and the gorgeous crystallised dress.
this collection will offer a much better price point for all those avid Giles fans who thought it was too steep until now
i am personally longing for one of those crazy bags
shoes by louboutin

I have to say, I love the pacman. Its not as amazing as the decapitated deer print, but I love how Giles plays with these humorous images, but does it in a way that is still wearable.

He makes his clothes fun but doesn't make them a novelty.

Yes, I agree.

Aside from the Pacman reference (BTW, I wonder whether he's been watching The Wrong Door [a surreal British comedy show]?), it seems quite a reserved collection for Giles.
