After seeing the whole collection, I would describe it as "Tarty Tartan". I'm not sure why that comes to mind, but I can see the Irma la Douce comparison. It's probably a combination of the real prim and proper tartan plaids and poofy skirts with the way the girls look and the tight little dresses. That said, I didn't realy like this collection. First off, I don't like plaids. Second, I know the whole lady-like theme is going strong in fashion right now, but I'm kind of sick of it. The frilly lace trimmings, the little capelettes.....there was just a granny quality to it. But, I did like the idea of juxtaposing something very traditional and something very new and hip. I was just dissappointed after his last few collections, this was kind of a let down.
However, I did like these two looks (the second one, sans shoes)
generated $300 million in sales alone. 
surrealist designer Elsa Schiaparelli. 
Anita Pallenberg, former partner of Rolling Stone Keith Richards, who shared cigarettes in the front row with her old friend 
, who started fashion's love affair with music back in the 1970s with her bondage-inspired creations for the Sex Pistols punk band.
