The third grey gown is really Rochas/Oliver looking...the evening wears look a lot more interesting than the day wear.

I like most of the collection, particularly the gowns, however I don't think the fur coats or that fur(?) sweater are appropriate for Spring/Summer.

The silhouette doesn't do the girls justice sometimes... imagine what it would do to a real woman. I.e. the white ensemble on Freja. And I don't like the fur as well.. it's not right for Summer. I love the white dress on Vlada in post 1!

Am I the only person that really likes this collection a whole lot? I think it's very lovely

^I like it... but I think he did better on the evening gowns than the rest

some of the long evening pieces are uber princess-in-a-fairytale
but their attempt with Balenciaga-nisms and shorter lengths falls very very flat

I quite love it, actually.

The gowns are alright, and a few of the short dresses. But the rest... eek!

I agree on the silhouettes! The details are lovely, but they somehow managed to make outrageously thin models look chunky and pear-shaped. Not so flattering.

love it love it love it... love it all!!!!
those are the types of dresses a woman can wear at work and to go out... i love the versatility fact - i think it's the #1 factor by which any designer should be judged!

i'm ABSOLUTELY in love with Snejana's and Vlada's long dresses in the post 1
