            Posted the show as it was one of the more anticipated of the season.

            My reaction "just make it all go away".

                “How do you persuade a woman to wear a two-piece suit who is not the German Chancellor?” asked Demna Gvasalia, who has spent the last six months looking into the Balenciaga archive.
                Really? What, in the dark?

                If Pinault really wanted to capitalize on the popularity of Vetements, he should have just bought a stake in it like a normal capitalist.

                I'm going to wager that this chancer lasts a whole two seasons (including this one). Just enough time for this retro/nostalgia/pseudo re-boot fad to pass, ironically just enough time for the millennials to discover classic Margiela, Comme and Yohji, realize that they did it first as the true pioneers and that there's simply no comparison to this re-hashed Mickey Mouse tribute nonsense.

                Wang must be quietly having a little giggle too to himself too, for all the flack he copped, this garbage makes his appointment and time at Balenciaga look inspired. What's going on with some of those silhouettes? What woman in her right mind would wear something so unflattering which makes her look at worst deformed, at best pregnant or comically likes she's smuggling boxes out of Staples.

                Have all the house codes simply become redundant this year? Where's all the refined impeccable tailoring and structure gone? Everything is collapsing.

                  I'm not sure how much higher those platform knee-highs can go. For the first seven looks, I was a bit taken aback at how... "normal" it was... then, of course, I was taken on a crash course through his vision of the 90s once again. And I guess he's trying to make florals happen again? I'm intrigued to see how long Gvasalia lasts at Balenciaga.
                  who slips in to my body and whispers to my ghost?

                    I thought Demna was playing it really safe with the first several looks. Then it became an incoherent shitfest. Like....what?....seriously?
                    The stiff leather/rubber coats are disgusting.

                      From a pure construction standpoint, the frontward curving shoulders of the first couple of looks are actually quite amazing. The rest is shit.

                        all it needs is the vetements logo on the back of everything and it's hot to a bunch of blind people, w/out it completely hopeless and quite funny in the degree of failure.

                          Static on the mannequin yes, I'm sure it looked great. In motion, not so much IMO.
