I am still raving about JW. Anderson trousers, so it's definitely the best imho.

The rest was banal and a letdown.

 

[Norden]

Margiela and mm6 were definite highlights.
I enjoyed the mood of the row.

the rest was a non event or awful. I’ll make a special mention for balenciaga. A grotesque collection, paraded by some people who I had immense respect for.

 

[eugenius]

My faves were Undercover, Sacai, and YSL. They succeeded at making both beautiful clothes AND a fantastic runway show.

My least faves were Rick, CdG, Junya, and Noir Kei Ninomiya. Just show me what winds up in the shops, then I'll be happy.

I was pleasantly surprised by what little I saw of Lora Piana, of all brands. If they took a more fashion-forward approach to their clothing, I'd be okay with that.

[perhydrol]

Best:
Ulla Johnson was very nice; Burberry has been actually growing on me, I guess it's because of the soundtrack; Prada was surprisingly good and same with Ferragamo. Bottega Veneta was fantastic, even if I still think it's a bit too heavy for the season. Courrèges was nicely sharp and crisp. Margiela added a bit of drama to this extremely dry fashion month. I also liked Stella McCartney, Loewe, Rabanne, and Carven. McQueen should be a honourable mention here, I'm gonna miss Burton because her interpretation of the brand, even if not the most exciting one, was a safe space.

Worst:
Helmut Lang, I don't really want to see any of Do's creations anymore. Chloé was a mess, but at least the main problem of the house is already gone. Gucci was an absolute disaster and the instagram posts of the ancora guy will not help him at all. Balenciaga was absolutely awful.

The rest was just unmemorable.

 

[McQ20]

Best
-Courreges (most refined collection yet for De Felice, from clothes to bags and accessories)
-Louis Vuitton (back to simpler styling, almost on the ranks of ss18, and ss17 collections)
-Sacai (always a hit for me)
-Dries Van Noten (I like the preppy vibes)

Good
-Saint Laurent (solid but needs more edge)
-Bottega Veneta (styling needs to be more realistic next time, I am getting tired of their leather everything trend)
-Ferragamo (best work yet for Davis, still needs more warmth and lushness)
-Ferrari (surprisingly good and believable)
-Boss (production is a bit overkill and overshadowed the clothes presented)

Worst
-Gucci (directionless)
-Tory Burch (unoriginal, Loewe-lite)
-Loewe (I don't get it, same with JWA. I like when JW manages to blur concept and wearability like his past Loewe collections (2015-2021) and his eponymous collections for aw19 and ss20)

Special Mentions
-Best Soundtrack: Gucci and Courreges
-Best Set Design: Courreges
-Best Casting: Bottega Veneta, Courreges

[HazJW]

Should've put Fendi in the dislike pile as well, managed to completely forget about it.

 

[Darko]

Best-Rokh
Worst-Chanel simply trashy AF

 

[CholoChic]

It is sad how all those big fashion groups has destroyed the creativity in fashion. Everything are just the same cliches. Galliano vision is far from all those pretentious catwalk, he is in the ateliers with the master ladies of paris couture having a precious time darning, iching,
putting clothes on backwards and still dreaming as when you are a child dressing your dolls joining of nice scraps of fabric that you found somewhere. So sincere.
