WOW! I am in love with this, Rick gets it right every season, yet still manages to bring something new at the same time.
The jackets are incredible. And I'm definitely intrigued by those boots...

 

[Gonatcha]

wow!! !!!! The Balenciaga comparison thing is seriously getting out of hand, this is the last thread I'd expect to find it in.

I am sick of ALL comparison between designers and collections. "That looks like him, this looks like that..."

Move on.

Rick is in the league of his own. He never fails to deliver The coats, the boots, everything.....

It's refreshing to see a collection without an 80's influence. This one is a real winner. Fashion forward, meets trendy, meets WEARABLE! All wrapped up in beautiful color choices. Not to mention so much of the collection is interchangeable. How wonderful is that from a practical consumer's stand point? The black would go gorgeously with baby powder blues. I'm trying to find something not to love.

can't see the "trendy" part, really (thank god)
But I agree about wearable, worst thing is that it doesn't just looks wearable, but real COMFY!

 

[Crying Diamonds]

I'm suprised.
I don't tend to like Mr Owens but all of the jackets and several of the dresses are just astounding.
Really beautiful.

Rick Owens took the opposite approach, following his ascetic aesthetic of last season but softening the severity and, as he said, turning his look from high priestess to sweet swan, complete with feathers wafting in her headband.

The essence of a strong fashion designer is to build a look and then refine it. Above Owens's latest boots, with loose flaps of suede like webbed feet, there were the usual leggings.

But the top half of the ensembles were new in shape and texture: jackets cut on a rising curve or with a panel flowing at the back. And a tiny band of a skirt, perhaps decorated with diamond embroidery on the ice blue or cream colors that challenged his signature black.

"It's a wall in Berlin - I have used the motif for a long time," said Owens to explain the geometric design that cut into the softness, literally, in the case of shaved mink for the brief skirts.

The sophistication of this collection, which was complex, yet wearable sportswear, with its zippered jackets and light layers, is the essence of the Rick Owens look. And this was yet another collection that took his vision a step forward on weird and wonderful boots.

This is divine.
The different colour palette, the cuts, the material. This just saved the first major day of Paris fashion week for me.

^^ I'd say it's a bit more galactic evil ice princess rather than a swan

 

[lmelanie]

ahhhhh!! god I love rick owens!

 

[jhaime]

*sings* around the worlddd...around the world....around the world.../// harder...better...faster...stronger...our work is never overrrrr...

that should have totally been the theme to this...

nobody better than Rick on the planet right now.

I need his s/s sneaks after he sported them (good man-marketing rick).

 

[Treefingers]

Amazing.
He keeps refining his look... he has evolved but you still know it's RO but it doesn't get redundant. All the other designers this season have tried to go "dark" but he shows that he does it best
So relevant! So beautiful! I really need [at least] one of those coats!
