I wonder if he started building his archives or if he kept all the patronnage of all his designs while he was at Dior.
He is technically strong so I guess he can replicate some outfits but that look is not really the most memorable one of his time at Dior or even of that collection…
 
The fabric and length of the Theyskens one are far superior embodying timeless elegance while the Prada one is like a cheaper version of the original (which also reminds me of Raf's Dior)!
 
I wonder, I looked at the cdg proenza comparison and it didn't read as either plagiarism or homage. It seems for me plagiarism/homage only really matters so much if you present yourself as a designer, artist, i.e. someone who is personally trying to say something and express themself. I don't think you can firmly plagiarize design like that as a creative director. Ex. I don't think proenza is even relevant in the plagiarism/homage discussion because they are just a vibes based clothing seller. It's like the gap, Uniqlo, old navy. Not so much inventive but just somewhere to go if you like vibe. If you're really putting yourself out there, being honest and vulnerable saying "I'm xyz, and this is what I'm proposing. Here is my vision of this person" then you can be at least somewhat relevant enough to criticize in terms of your references and etc.
