This remind me of Alexander mcQueen fall 2003

And a bit of the Lanvin collection from same season as the Alexander Mcqueen one.

yes...the difference is subtle but strong...grant's is a sharper more refined silhouette with a clean line...

mcqueen's is rougher around the edges...a bit rebellious...

elbaz strikes a beutiful balance between the two at lanvin...

i believe lanvin will be a feast... ...i can hardly wait...

His stuff manages to be both elegant and subtly sexy. Very nice

Absolutely agree with soft when said, "in a class by itself." A beautiful, high-end exercise in no-nonsense chic.

seems like the LV headhunters are lurking at tFS and taking our advice seriously

Martin Grant: If ladies could lunch every day after “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” Martin Grant would live in a perfect world. The Australian designer’s collection for spring, with its retro couture-style jackets and graceful cocktail dresses, was perfect fare for an Audrey Hepburn type. Perhaps that’s why Marco Gobbetti, president of Givenchy, attended Grant’s show.

Could Grant fill the position left open by Julien Macdonald? (YES, HE COULD)

While that remains to be seen (Gobbetti was spotted at Sophia Kokosalaki, too), Grant’s doing fine on his own. Season after season, he refines the classics loved by his clients, including Lee Radziwill, who was at the show, while adding enough novelty to keep the fashion pack interested. Grant’s good coats and his fetching trench with subtle pocket details and flared sleeves was an example of his impeccable tailoring skills. Smocked silver jersey skirts came with frills and had a fey allure, as did the silver tennis dress and ruffled black chiffon dress trimmed with satin. Grant’s voice is steady and sure.
