Versus F/W 10.11 Milan

Does anyone know the retail price point for Versus? I'm not sure anything could justify the poor construction on many of these pieces, but I am curious... (by curious I mean secretly hoping it really is priced like a diffusion line and that the garments put in to production will be better assembled than these prototypes because I do love a short, pleated skirt and never got around to buying a similar one from Kane's F/W07 collection)...
 
i absolutely love it. i adore dresses with cut-outs.
 
I can somewhat understand poor construction for his own line, his label is still young. However, for a fashion house of Versace's caliber, the construction on these garments is unacceptable. The designs are there but the poor fabric choices really kind of ruin it for me.
 
It would be great if they ditched the shiny fabrics. Love the shape of the pleated skirt!
 
I don't think it's as horrendous as the masses, but I am more than a little disappointed. Last season really created a new "Versus girl" to me; she was the little sister to Gianni's Versace Woman, but while her sister ruled discos in Rome, she was off in London romancing punky British boys and wooing them with her Italian charm. This doesn't look anything like what that Versus girl would wear; if anything, as many others have stated, it looks like something the Christopher Kane girl would wear.

Also, does anyone think last season looked more "wintery" than this one?
 
Im dissapointed...
I agree with everyone that says that this is not Versus, it has Kane written all over
Why the skirt so stiff? it lacks of youth...

And also I agree about Donatella not having her best season really
Versace was a dissapointment and now this...
It's a pity because they were flying really last season
 
i loveeeee the shade of blue that goes through the collection...
the rest is nor here nor there...
 
i like most of it. i love the look of the buckle dresses. its very s&m chic. however, as is a problem with that kind of look in general, fit is majorly important or else it cuts into the skin. I am shocked they let this look on the runway with what it is doing to her midsection

i also love the prints on the tshirts. i guess that is kane's thing, he loves those photographic quality images on shirts. unfortunately, the same thing does not work on the bags, which look like those bags you can get at a booth in the mall with a picture of your kids or audrey hepburn on it.

Agreed with everything you have said. This is a major downgrade from his first collection for Versus, some of those dresses make me wanna...:sick:
 
I'm not liking this, not at all. Last season disappointed me because it read as kind of an homage to Versace rather than as a stand-alone Versus collection, and to my mind the Versace woman and the Versus girl were two very different creatures and should stay that way. But the clothes themselves were really good, so I got past that.

This however is almost like a parody of that homage to Versace. The bondage straps are multiplied til they resemble Venetian blinds, the pleated skirts are more exaggerated. But there is an undeniable cheapness here, in the colors, in the combination of elements, in the fabrics...

I know many think that Kane is like the natural heir to Versace but I just don't see it.
 
This is very beautiful. It's not fantastic but it's cool. Very cool. But it's too much Kane and not enough Versace.
 
Only dresses catch my like and are nice he rest not that much. Such an disappointment this season from Versus.
 
Repetitious and one-note, looks like a one-trick pony after all.
 
i agree with Squizree, i saw a lot of Kane in this show, it was like this was his line
