The highlight of Day 2 for me thus far has been Rick Owens' show. True to form, he delivered nothing particularly outrageous or unexpected, however, that it not to say it was boring or a disappointment - by any means. Some people are bothered by monochromatic collections, which I suppose I can empathize with to a degree. However, if there is enough beauty, depth and thought put into the textures and details within that singular color palette - then not only am I not bothered by it, but I find it totally admirable. My closet is basically monochromatic and therefore I heavily rely on interesting textures, beautiful fabrics and intricate detailing to build upon it.   [read the full post]

By Regina Libian (inaya404) Rick Owens' style couldn't be more recognizable at this point. It's distinctness is both a blessing and a curse. People will either excitedly recognize it or say it looks too similar as the previous season. And to be fair, this one actually does. However, I still fall more into the former category of being excited about it. As I'm sure is apparent by now... I like when a designer does something and does it well. I like the continuity, I like the subtle progression, I like the honesty. Unfortunately in a high paced environment like that of our fashion world, this persistence is often and easily written off a being boring or a one-note. Anyways, on to my thoughts on this collection in particular... it is peculiarly similar to last season, right down to the pres...   [read the full post]

Anyways, on to my thoughts on this collection in particular... it is peculiarly similar to last season, right down to the presentation, model and styling. But there is something really admirable and slightly amusing about this. As far as the clothes go... they're lovely, they're Rick, they're clothes that malnourished young men will look sexy in... you know, the usual. There is enough progression here to keep my interest, though. I love the gradient leather jacket with the contrast sleeves, it's really nice looking. I love the cut of the leathers, the proportions and - even though it's something we've seen before - the styling; it just works.   [read the full post]

Oh, Mr. Owens, can you do no wrong? At first glance, this collection may appear fairly minimal - well, in comparison to the last few, at least - but there is so much going on. The subtle variation and expansion of different takes on each look via different materials and detailing is really admirable. The details are truly where it's at... particularly in many of the skirts, which look as if you could endlessly peel the layers away like the petals of a flower. What has always moved me most about Rick Owens is his idea of beauty... which is, I suppose, that there should be no singular idea of beauty. He breaks down the conventional concepts of how women should look... but not defiantly. Rather, he demonstrates his own unique vision of a woman, and somehow, she coul...   [read the full post]
