Live Streaming... The F/W 2025.26 Fashion Shows
He was considered tacky here mostly because his namesake brand (now I wonder if designers in recent seasons have transformed into those good taste makers because of such trend) but I found his Moschino more appealing than the current one even just for the superficial fun factor unlike this new one intentionally trying be intelletual and quirky.I miss Jeremy Scott at this point, even though this forum has never particularly appreciated him
it wouldn't make sense to have JW at Dior with Adrian continuing Loewe with JW'isms they created together at that brand IMHO...he should've stayed at loewe and maybe he might've gotten the CD position there in the end
moschino must be one of the hardest brands to do at this moment in time
Pretty well summed up. Moschino's DNA is indeed about parody, about fun and making fun of what too many others take too seriously and this collection isn't fun for a single penny. It's not that easy, to be honest, as either one would lose the funny appeal of the brand while another could turn it too gimmicky (just a bit like a Henry Holland and his namesake "House"). I still think Jeremy Scott was a good fit for it, though I understand both Moschino and Scott may want to move on to something else. But when you want to move on (and possibly forward), you'd better make sure it actually works and doesn't just water-down (or even totally erase) what sets your brand apart from the others...I think it is very obvious he made a parody of avant-garde designers, like Margiela and Yamamoto. So, in that way he is being loyal to Moschino DNA (parody of fashion).
But it is not funny enough to be seen as a real parody, so it reads as sad mix of other designer copies.
