One of the most exciting and thoughtfully provoking collection in paris this season.

Upon viewing this collection a second time I find it to be even more intriguing. Not only are the pieces amazing but they're all styled really well.

i love the boots myself. that shape is very sci-fi

I don't like the styling of the Owens' collections because they are so intimidating!!!

But the pieces, individually, are so beautiful and so wearable. It's also the coolest things you could ever wear!!! Love his leather jackets as always!

I'm head over heels in LOVE with this collection
I squeaked when I saw the pics, and I haven't reacted like that in ages...since AW05 Balenciaga collection(Loved everything about the collection). With RO, I haven't been that excited since his AW02 collection.

This is going to be a hit. At least with me it is! I want almost everything...

I adore it! I love the way he's using those tight little sleeves to set off the firm, tailored (but not tight) torsos and the draped pieces that flow through the collection like an underground river. And he's also doing some of the most modern looking fur pieces of the season. No stuffiness or references to "glamor"... they look new and young. Some of the fur pieces look so plush and delicious that I'm having a hard time keeping my hands off the computer screen. Rick always has fantastic materials (washed cashmere, washed leather) but this collection is pushing my fabric freak buttons HARD. Thin, supple leathers, crinkled metallic leather, airy furs, and is that some black silk jacquard I see? Rick, we need close ups!!! PLEASE!

So cool. It's kind of biker meets the military meets Doctor Zhivago. But without the studs, thank god... also I think the boots are rad- they do look like hoofs, thus complimenting those lovely, fur pieces!
