John Rocha S/S 06 - London

[Mr-Dale]

Hee the shoes are not unlike our clogs are they? I actually think they're cute. Not the clogs.

Hell no!

 

[iperlchen]

Hell no!

Take a look at the side profile

 

[Mr-Dale]

It's Volendam chic

This is GORGEOUS!!

All the dresses are just so floaty and summery. I love the detailing, the colours EVERYTHING! I even like those huge bows which should look comical but actually look beautifully dramatic.

 

[travolta]

i'm not blown away. i think the strongest piece is the first one of post #10. the combination of the sheer white layer over the rainbow packed ruffles is super cool. B)

That's what I meant to say

Its lovely - I have always liked John Rocha. I can see a heavy influence from the Broken Bride collection and some influences from the last Demeulemeester collection. Both very beautiful collections so worthy of some channelling form Rocha I'd say.

 

[Estella*]

beautiful and poetic, i love all the 'ruffling' and the proportions as tinuviel pointed out...

 

[shambles]

this is by far my fav. collection so far !
just absolutely gorgeous . .
& this purple dress is just

I love that dress too! And all the dark clothes ... Not as fond of the cream, however. It begins to look a bit too scrappy.

I always thought perle and I were the only ones in the Rocha fanclub, as we call it

lovelyly ...though I've much preferred previous collections.

Only spotted two dresses I like, the rest is really blah...... what I call "avant gardist wannabe..." ....... It's all really confusing and there's too much going on on each garment.....

absolutely agree...

amazing!!!

 

[Benzo]

He's one of my fav designers. This doesn't disappoint me, but I think I prefer some of his previous collections more. Everything very nice, but the shoes are.....

Trying to do big bows & not being misunderstood as a copy of V&R is a difficult thing...

I've always John Rocha. Really intricate work, his construction and details are always amazing. Thanks perlefine, although I would add one Rocha dress from this collection that really made me smile, the "reverse" evening gown:

 

[mdankwah]

this is too beautiful to make a comment on.

 

[mishahoi]

from a design standpoint, it's a beautiful, interesting collection... although personally, i'm not so into 'organic' design and prefer sharper lines. the shiny black puff-sleeve coat is adorable though (those puffs look like they *really* want to reach the end of the arm!)

I love this collection...great continuity and, being a slightly somber person, I was happy to see black that I could see working in spring summer.
Favorite pieces were the black satin dress with fabulous sleeves in post #8

And the black coat/cropped pants look in #7
