the wwd review

Tse: It's been three years since Tse's last runway show, and now the house is dipping a toe into the fashion pool under the guidance of Tess Giberson. The designer worked her theme of Protection in a library-quiet palette of pale grays and muted jewel tones. The story — which began with the literal reference of a quilted cocoon coat — easily made its way through skinny knit dresses that conjured up chain mail, and sweaters textured with seashell shapes and ancient protective symbols.
Her coats, especially the beautiful white shearling trapeze, serenely simple wrap and blanket-like cape, should fly out of stores come fall. The same goes for the woven pieces, such as a bloused and belted black silk dress inset with lace. Some, however, criticized this collection as being a little dull. A perfectly cut cashmere trench with clever details might not roar on a runway, but it does have its place in a smart wardrobe

i have to agree with scott...
while there are some nice things...
overall, i found this pretty dull...

i remember when chalayan was there and narciso...
it was much much better...
hope next season is more interesting...

i mean...it's ok-but it certainly didn't need a runway show...
some showroom appointments for the buyers would have sufficed...
this is not runway material, imo...

The opening cream/oyster outfits are beautiful. The knitwear desirable and the rest will hopefully improve next season. Bad hair was distracting.
