Scottish designer, Jonathan Saunders showed last night...don't like this much, his last collection had so much more instant impact, but the fabrics are nice and colours are good.
I like all the red looks, except for that last red dress...the rest is indeed a bit too hard and I think the prints are a bit too 'there'...don't like them....
A bit disappointing...it looks like he toned things way down this season. I miss a lot of the weirder prints. Still, his eye for colour is impeccable and there's a lot I do like here.
Here's a few more pics from vogue.co.uk....love the stripey dresses!
You're right, its not all that interesting and draws too much from the power dressing 80's thing. What happended to those brilliant prints and combination of colours he did a few years ago that got him regognised? My favourite was that dress that was on the cover of British Vogue.
i like few of the looks droogist posted, mainly the short beige/brown dress..
and i agree, probably his less impressive collection to date, he seems eager to mainstream his work, and it just doesnt work too well ...
hmmm i'm not too excited by this collection either...what attracted me in the first place was his brilliant use of prints/patterns and colour...there wasn't a lot of that in this collection...the reds and yellows are kinda drab and the patterns aren't that flattering or complementry to the form as they were the previous seasons...am i the only one thinking "star trek" when i saw the first few outfits posted?...i can see that he's pushing his designs into a new direction which he had started to last season which i guess is good...hopefully his designs will evolve into something better next season...
You can see he is still experimenting with being a dressmaker as opposed to just making prints or collaborating with other people. When (or if) ever he gets the two in sync, I think he'll be quite dangerous--he's pushing print and use of colour in a direction rarely seen, quite promising.
it makes me think of star trek: the next generation. all a bit too 80's for me. that said, a couple of the print combinations are appealing to me in a way...
I liked what Luxmode chose to post and some of what droogist posted as well. Something about the colors in combination with those geometric shapes made of lines rubbed me the wrong way, reminded me of this term my friend and I coined--"nuevajo." Yeah, very 80's. I think I would have liked it better without those shoes, too. They were ugly.
