Top Ten Favorite Collections Of All Time

[ultramarine]

Best collections (Part 1)

#1 Alexander McQueen Spring Summer 03. We had seen his cutting skills, we knew his showmanship and what to expect. And then, he burst out of this comfort three colour palette per collection zone and gave us accesories which are sold to this date (infamous skull scarf) and items for night, day and everything in between!

#2 Dior Haute Couture Fall 2003. The inspiration? Music ... so what did Galliano do? Take us across the board and have dance, tap and ballet our way thru a truly outstanding collection (with the supposedly pink polka dotted dress with the million dollar price tag). In my opinion? Worth .. every penny.

#3 Hussein Chalayan RTW Spring Summer 2007. How often do you see something undeniably new on the runway? Season after the season it seems that old trends get rehashed and revamped and chewed and regurgitated all over again. Here, Chalayan doesnt only show us something new ... but inspired in fashion history. Here we see the past ... as in now .. and why not? The future! Who says people wont be wearing shifting clothes 30 years from now?

#4 Christian Lacroix Spring Summer 2004 Haute Couture. He is certainly a master of colour, and couture creations. The details on his clothes are mind blowing, and if someone wanted something romantic and completely out of this world creative. There was Lacroix. He was such an incredible romantic that his house closed doors after tough financial times. Still, Im a firm believer he was one of the last true couturiers.

#5 Viktor & Rolf Fall 2001 RTW. There was a before and after this collection. Especially for the house of the V&R and even the fashion world. The "Black hole" collection (as it is known) sent shockwaves across the fashion world and brought a lot of issues to the plate. Leave it to brainy dutch to spark so much controvery and remain unharmed. This collection inspired the all white following season (spring) and still you could see bits of it on the other collections like when they released Flowerbomb (their fragrance). This "essay in volume" gives what anybody wants in the fashion world: more black clothes! lol (and I dont wear black!)
