Louis Vuitton S/S 11 Paris

[irulan]

is that zebra top bodypaint?

It was. And boy, everything's where it's ought to be.

ummm...hmmmm.....interesting.
very far from LV
but interesting
animal prints, asian inspired dresses, colorblock
cant find a connection with any of those looks

 

[balmain1914]

Basically this collection is Vuitton thanks all those crazy Chinese customers for what they had bought in Paris/Hong Kong/Mainland boutiques even under this sort of recession...What a compliment.

 

[Fiercification]

I actually don't hate this...maybe I just have a thing for Eastern influences in fashion. Some of the very structured kimono like dresses are very similar to Marc this season but I love them TBH.

 

[gossiping]

so happy i didn't watch the stream now

this is damn awful

 

[FashionPower]

Chinese inspiration?Oh so original
Roberto Cavalli SS03 and Etro FW10 immediately comes up to mind...just combine them and you got this
Anyway still better than that outdated collection from previous season

 

[Fatalefashion]

^Yes, veronica Etro for Louis Vuitton.

So I guess t*ts are out and legs are in?

I really don't know how I feel about this... it's the most "Marc Jacobs" LV collection I've seen in quite some time, which I think kind of takes away from some of the glamour I assosicate with Vuitton. I think I need to see more HQ's for a better feel of the quality.

 

[Jacque Marcel]

Marc really has Saint Laurent on his mind this season. I like the idea of opium den/jazz club glamour of it all.

 

[clocked]

some pieces are excellent, but some are SOOO tacky...marc what are you doing? such a downgrade from last season

 

[seahorseinstripe]

I just saw the photos on style.com and i love them!!!

 

[eugenius]

Was that a bejeweled tassle I spotted hanging from the shorts, in the lady's hoo-haa region?

 

[holaloha]

I kinda like it in a weird way! Very very verryyyyy different from anything ive seen from LV. Marc looked adorable at the end. haha

 

[imagensfashions]

VERY ARMANI even the way the models walk at the runaway

 

[softgrey]

Looks like I'm against the grain again to say that I actually like quite a number of pieces from this collection, much more than the "New Look" FW collection which I found to be frumpy and clumsy. He isn't the best at cutting or shaping, as is obvious from the badly fitted pieces but he's wisely stuck to a sleek, long silhouette and channeled a lot of the more flamboyant YSL DNA - the clash of colours, the animal, Chinoiserie, 70s disco glam. He's better at some of those memes than the others, but the matching accessories will definitely become cult items, and I wonder if the gold and lacquer red make-up could signal a LV venture into maquillage?

i'm right there with you zazie...
...

some of the pieces are clumsy, i agree...
but it's some of the best use of colour i have ever seen...
it's like a feast for my eyes!...


the panda makes me smile...
i thought that was cute and clever...
and just a little silly...but in a good way!...

There were some amazing designs here. What ruins it for me are the zebra prints, in fact all animal motifs, and the glitzy, glossy, disco fabric. The fringe-y dots put me off too. Live tigers on the catwalk would have been awesome, competing with the horses at Hermès, lulz.
Nah, still have to give him something for doing a fun and colourful show in an otherwise quite boring Paris season.

 

[FakeFlower]

wow I really really like this and you won't often hear me say that about LV!

 

[beaverhausen]

I like it...it's fun and colorful
I love the Asian 70's disco glam...very YSL Opium

it's actually body paint!

 

[simple_elegance]

Wow...I'm not at all sure how I feel about this. It's kinda all over the place. Love the makeup though.
