there is something off but i cant put my finger on it
its the second season im looking at the collection and it just somehow doesnt grow on me...
maybe it is too much? too serious? too dressy? i dont know what it is but i wouldnt buy it no matter how pretty i could find one specific thing.

It probably has to do with the fact that she does not offer an 'edge' that makes her point of view stand out from other designers that are doing 'pretty cocktail dressing'... Is it too serious or dress? Yes it is, but it also isn't over the top enough so that it would stick out as particularly unique, next to other (American) competitors. I find that there is a lot to choose from when it comes to that specific tier of the market and a lot other designers offer a more attractive and imaginative product than hers.

My God I love this collection, in my mind it is pure perfection. I do see how it could be a love/hate thing though. But gosh, I love it.
