No darling,there are just too many designers out there to expect an outcome like that.
I'm surprised,actually,someone mentioned Chalayan because he and McQueen along with Viktor & Rolf have done very good things,as far as raising mainstream fashion's attention,to avant-garde. Not to mention,they are good designers.
I totally agree about that Chanel stuff - especially the long Trench coat - surely its just not very nice? & I don't really understand the Chanel bag that looks like a recod either - is that not just a complete gimmick? Does it look nice? Sometimes I find it really difficult to be objective about fashion when you are constantly being 'fed' an opinion by fashion magazines. Sometimes its good not to read them at all & just to look at the collections almost in a vacuum from all the 'baggage' magazines promote.Originally posted by mikeijames@Apr 13th, 2004 - 4:25 pm
i am surprised no one has mentioned chanel...you cannot open a magazine without seeing the quilted bag, the tweedy coat, pictures from the runway, or that TRENCH over and over and over![]()

Prada: I don't find her designs at all original or interesting, or indeed that impressive. A lot of her stuff from about 5-6 years ago looked like it was cut from 1960s Simplicity patterns, and while I am a large fan of 1960s Simplicity patterns, I cannot admore something that I could just as easily make at home. Her current lines fail to knock me out, too. I think she shops at J. Crew on her days off. Nice enough, classic, but what's the big old deal?

Baby Phat, can we say glorified hooker garments? I mean, who is her muse, herself? She is beyond obnoxious and after seeing her "ad campaign" I hate her all the more. What's the message she's contributing to the fashion world, if you have money, you're a designer?
Hedi Slimane, as someone else said, yes he's talented but I mean come on, he's not completely revolutionizing men's fashion. Mabye it has to do with Karl's soft spot for him.![]()
Heatherette, I didn't say anything in my first post but hey, I might as well join the crowd. First, what woman in her right (or sober) mind would ever wear anything they create. Second, does it seem like they take ugly prom dresses from the 80's, cut and shred, and then put it on a catwalk? And finally, I am extremely tolerant of alternative lifestyles but when your muses are a Barbie-esque science project and a spoiled little putana of an heiress, you're askin for itrder: . (The muses in question are Paris Hilton and Amanda Lepore, just for those who were left unsure)
