There are some nice elements to this collection and a couple of good looks; the black jumpsuit with a yellow croped jacket, the crossover dress with the yellow sarong and cardigan, most of the grey section, for example, but overall i'm not a fan. I think he's still doing something thats his own (at least as much as it ever was) but i just dont like it especially anymore and thats sad, but hey there have been much worse collection this season so...
Also past comments about the incoherence of the collections are valid here too i think, theres a good capsule- or pre-collection in there but with extra bits added to bulk it out

the styling of the necklaces kind of made it difficult to see what was happening with some of the blazers/jackets. i see a lot of interesting pieces (leather skirt and shirt, cropped pants, v-neck grey buttoned shirt that looks like the shadar shirts for men that i love) and i love some of the looks, going to come back to it later or wait to see a video.

Andrew, I agree with you. Well, at least it's better than the men's.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

This is the most successful women's collection i've seen from Damir Doma. He seems to be working with (rather than against) the female form much more here. Early DD womenswear often hid or ignored the body underneath in a way that seemed awkward to me.
The long cloaks are better than ever (Both the off-white and the black with leather(?) sleeves.). The chiffon halter dress look with the blazer on top is a nice elegant, wearable take on the DD aesthetic. I also like the belted jumpsuit with the center slit and the rest of the mustard/black silk looks.
I also like the chokers, the return of the elongated ribbon ties and the gilded lapels here since they add a bit of geometry and hardness to contrast with the typically loose, layered and flowing elements.
I also like the model casting for this show-but have to say that although Lekeliene's jaunty waddle may be her trademark, it doesn't work so well for a Damir Doma show. Could she not hear the music?Last edited by BUMMER; 10-01-2011, 01:31 AM.

Mike Nouveau v. David Lynch
"More than 20 minutes of pleading and threats by Mr. Doma’s agents led nowhere. Music being played by Mike Nouveau, the D.J., was cut mid-song. The guests, some angry, some sullen, some bemused, were unceremoniously ushered up the club’s six-story staircase and out onto the street."Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

That article reads like a Myspace post by a high school student with literary aspirations. Two pages about a big club's interior with no pictures to demonstrate it and some insipid party drama.
As for the collection, why does it never look like Damir Doma ever touches the womenswear? It's like he brings in a new designer and tells them to make it look like his menswear. I'd like it better if he just declared his menswear unisex and sent the ladies down in those awesome balloon pants and shorts.
