I really want to see it! There are so many good reviews on this one and it seems very intresting! So to my firstview.com friends please post, Im sure you guys won't be dissapointed, too!
hmm, i like but i was expecting something a bit....more. i don't know. I really really like the shapes of some of these pieces but it's seems a bit fallish.
I agree with Suzy, such beautiful simple clothes that really shows Rucci's couture work. The coats with lined details are gorgeous! Super thanks, Astrid!
It's a little bit too 'conservative' but still, a very beautiful collection -for 'older' clients- i'm sure he can experiment a bit more and add some 'fun' in his work. I don't think this collection is in tune with the general 'uplifted' mood of the ss04 season.. Loved : *his hand accessories that look like 'half gloves' *the black on black shine/mat contrasts *his little black dresses. The floor length dresses were a bit of a dissapointment, a bit too DonnaKaran-ish i think
But that's what Rucci is about, he doesn't do girly or trendy. He does his own thing, he beats to his own drum. Another thing I like about him. That's very true.
yes, i absolutely agree igni, i was not expecting 'girly or trendy' not from Rucci, he's better than just that, its just that his "own" drum might need a bit tuning. "conservative" does not neccessarily need to be dull, thats my point. my very own design style used to be quite near to Rucci's 'pureness' at the end i was so pure that i started boring myself Pure can be also playful and smart without losing its qualities of striking design and wearability. Pure needs to avoid austerity in order to become modern and avoid traping itself in 'boring' this is Rucci's only tiny weakness -i'm sure he will take care of it, very soon) apart from this little detail, he's one of my favourite contemporary designers, from day one. btw, i'm regarding his work at the same creative levels as Sibylla and Elbaz, a rising modern master.
