Wait... this is mainline and not A Friend?

What are they doing in London?

I had a quick look at this yesterday and this is not among their best efforts. The plaid, the 80s fishnet, the sweatpants (yikes), the denim stuff. It's the stuff my nightmares are made out of.
Some of their signature pieces sprinkled throughout are nice as usual, especially the leather pieces, but overall it's not to my taste. At all.

[Faust]

It's the main line. They decided to move the show to London - not sure for this season only or overall. Probably a one-season thing.

I thought it was great. The stuff you speak off - the Vetements effect - were only in a few looks. Overall it was all solid AFV.

Yeah, I concur. It was quite a disappointing LFW overall to be honest. This came across like Vetments crossed with a very rough and ready Haider, with the velvet jackets and layered open belts.

I enjoyed it as well. Seeing how they did the construction of those headpieces is amazing.

Broken down there are some really great pieces in there.

Makeup+styling is on point, as always.

Inge Grognard is a goddess who should be making millions if we lived in the fashion world where true creativity was prized instead of bedroom privileges and PR.

It's a permanent move, they're still doing the showroom in Paris though

[Faust]

Yes, I heard that yesterday. Interesting move. Makes sense, as Paris gets incredibly crowded.
