Amazing. I must admit I didn't see this collection coming. But those shoes and bags are gorgeous. The colours could have been mistaken for fall but this is wonderful.
 
I believe Victoria is on top of her game right now. Yes, she may not design spectacular and innovative clothing and yes, there are many designers out there who are more creative and experimental, but I believe her aesthetic fills this void in the fashion business that not many new designers pay attention to and that is extremely well tailored and luxurious clothing that low-key women with money and class want to wear.
 
Great collection, although the last few looks, the pink/yellow prints, I don't like, the rest is very nice.
 
This is how one evolves a brand! Sure she must have her people telling her to do tailored boring skintight dresses for the rest of her life, but it takes balls to so clearly take the collections in a new direction! It's the only way to move forward in this business, and she gets it. (also the fact she personally owns everything with no outside financing or license deals, means she can make that final decision)

Surprisingly focused, and what most lacks at NYFW; cohesive collection, from start to finish. I mean Safari and Nautical has been done to death, but it looked "fresh" here. The boxy bags PERFECT, and so luxurious. Amazing coats (they are her new "dress"), and wonderful use of knits.

Did not like the shoes, but thought they fit in the collection. And the strictness of some tops was well executed. Stripes are very dangerous, but on these skirts they look fluid, and i would wear them. And again, can we please say NO to platforms?!
 
^Actually the brand is co-owned by Simon Fuller, so although not part owned by say LVMH or Kering, she is co-owned, Simon owned 1/3 of the business and Victoria owning the remainder 2/3 of the business.

I can already tell from what I've seen here what is really going to sell because although in a way this isn't what she normally does with her signature, her customer has evolved with her and has continued to connect with customers not necessarily into the brand already so seeing this it is already getting me excited for next season, the quality never fails for Victoria's clothes, the slightest detail is always considered.

Her constant evolution of outerwear and separates is always exciting to see evolve because it is always consistently popular.

I didn't however like the shoes, they were a little off for me.
 
stay away from prints and stripes they remind me of stella mccartney a bit. ugh.

however the start is great!

Yes, i always forget about Fuller, but she is still the majority owner of the brand & her image, and from what i read he pretty much lets her have the last word on creative side she & the team chose to go into. Pretty sure if Kering or LVMH had a stake that would NOT be the case. But then VB has always been an astute business woman, so I'm sure she takes his advice in consideration.
 
contrary to others, i think the way she uses stripes is one of the strengths here. she also does a nice job with the asymmetrical closures. strong work overall.
 
Victoria is becoming seriously global brand, her aesthetic towards the collection is fantastic. I love it very much how ease and nonchalant on its own.
 
^ Agreed. This is a strong, beautiful collection and I loooove it.
 
She's so basic. Her collection is always like Celiné with simpler silhouettes. It does nothing for me.
 
Doesn't do anything for me either. Super basic outfits lacking anything really interesting to them...
