Reed Krakoff S/S 11 New York

I do not know what to think about this collection, some of the ideas were nice, but the execution was lacking. The first look and the last two dresses were easily the best looks in the entire show. I know people get tired of hearing this, but some of it looked Balenicaga and Helmut Lang esque; I think this was due the styling.

I kind of liked it, but at the same time I felt indifferent towards this collection. I think there should of been more accessories, and the shoes could of definitely been improved. The dresses near the end border on being extremely tacky.

this looks a like a Helmut Lang collection, from the time when he himself was still designing....which is lovely. and OMG, Christina Kruse was there!!!

I didn't watch the whole show, but I must admit I'm disappointed. We'll see how the individual pieces break down, but after such a strong f/w collection, the basic-ness of the shapes and all the slits, leave me wanting more.

he stumbled a bit when he first launched on runway, but between his stella tennant ad campaign and this new focused catwalk presentation, he's doing a good job as positioning himself as new york's version of bottega veneta. this stuff had the luxe appeal of some of the most understated -- "when your initials are enough" -- houses in the world. it's just good to see he's improved its polish.
