This I agree with . I still love Rick but like I said , I’m not a client anymore. He’s a master in a class of his own , but lately has been disappearing into an ivory tower of his own making and it’s become more about making ever more outlandish statements that , because they’re not surprising anymore mean very little. They’re great to look at but swiftly forgotten because you just know none of it will be sold. The subtleties of his earlier collections are what’s missing hereI don’t know, I expected something different...Maybe a reset! I wanted maybe a more sensual Rick, like the old days. I miss Rick’s interpretation of Madame Grès or Madeleine Vionnet...Something more intimate, emotional.
This is very strong but too performative. I love Rick but not this season!
