Maria Carla is one of the best runway models, I've missed her so much

I like it! I don't mind the leopard! This is just VERY different from what Ricardo usually does, I mean, it's still dark and romantic with gothic flair, but, it's just...different!

I still prefer SS 07 Haute Couture MUCH more, though...that show was stunning...

Is that Maria Carla?

yeah, shes been everywhere couture season. shes coming back!

and that dress she is wearing is to die for. omg i love it

 

[The_Ida]

Love the swirling thing... Wonder how he does that.

 

[Salvatore]

I find this quite interesting.....a bit ugly.

 

[The_Ida]

^Then ugly is the new lovely. I love this.

 

[gius]

^Haha I agree.. I love *ugly*
I really like all the textures in the work
I think some of it is made by themselves, especially the fur 'bobbles' and 'scales'.. An interesting way of creating decoration with handcraft, something fresh compared to all the usual embroidery

This is so different that it is too hard for me to say it is hideous etc, it's very unexpected.

 

[it-boy's nature]

The first couple of leapord looks are incredible and the rest is really well done. I wish it was a little more outrageous with hair and makeup however, the lack of theatrics is disapointing to me in a Haute coture show.

This isn't couture.

This lookes like a RTW collection.

 

[BaroqueRockstar]

leopard print??!!!!
why tisci?????
other than that it doesn't look too bad. i have faith enough in tisci to hope that this collection isn't a complete disaster...

 

[Nemezide]

GIVENCHY is one of my fave now, i really like it\MariaCarla came back and looks stunning yay

 

[Melly5525]

I was very scared when I first saw the leopard outfits but there are some other pieces I love, like the blue Mariacarla gown and the white and silver gown on Raquel also some nice jackets, I ll have to see the whole collection before I can judge it!

 

[Inaya]

The jacket with the spine on the back! I want to see a larger pic of that, how interesting

I hate how Cavalli destroyed leopard print because it really is a beautiful material to work with, it can be soo opulent and cool... which is what Tisci accomplished, IMO. I love how unexpected this all is yet it still makes sense for Tisci in some sort of way

I dont think Cavalli destroyed it at all,he does not posess such power.I love the use of leopard print here and would never compare it to Cavalli!

 

[avantgarde]

oooh, i like.

 

[drusilla]

No, no, no. Do not want. I've always detested animal prints, and the other pieces with skins/fur/whatever look too much like animals instead of clothes. Detailing is one thing; walking around actually looking like an armadillo on two legs is another. Most everything else is just bizarre, and not in the intriguiging, "oh, how could I make this work" way--to me, it's just ugly.

how? its hard to tell craftmenship from pictures with watermarks on them, but to me this looks like hc. it looks extremely well crafted and tailored.
