Givenchy Mens F/W 14.15 Paris

[Desi]

I enjoyed that Four-pins made a comment about how every kid had a shirt with a basketball on it when they were younger. Truth and I still like it here.

I actually don't mind this, at least no more Mary's or Bambi's.
And I love the fur.
I guess it's not easy to balance creativity with balance sheets, and to stay alive, one would easily succumbed to the latter. And I do think Givenchy men's is selling well.

I suppose he's just going to settle for being the go-to brand for American rappers. Tragic that commercial success killed his entire creative process.

A few of the tailored looks were nice but the overall feel is still "haute urban/ghetto". Let me know if he ever returns to more a Parisian aristocratic image that falls more in lines with house's founder.

Horrible. It looks cheap, so basic. You can get many of this look for under 25 dollars...

It really does come off looking so basic and unworthy of such an expensive label-- even of what he's capable of. Particularly the basketball pattern that's used as graphic lines in so many pieces. I'd almost rather prefer the gimmicky status tees and sweats to these mall/ Foot Locker level type of graphic designs.

Riccardo's constant ripping off of Gaultier is always astounding to me, down to the exotic, masculine and handsome cast, and even the styling. The coats with the wraparound fur collar is very Gaultier A/W 1993. Will he ever produce a menswear collection that doesn't blatantly rip off Gaultier?

Great cast though.

Thanks Philipp for the personal snaps. Really shows it's all about the cast here.

Oh god, I can already see these stupid hipster boys/rappers who are "into fashion" going crazy over this but can't even afford it. I'm sure they are really happy about this Gee-Ben-Chi collection.

^What point are you trying to make?

This season just looks just as confused as the previous season so why ruin a good thing! But seriously I just think these clothes look flat and indifferent and doesn't add any personality to the person who decides to wear it. ​
