The Viridi-Anne FW '10

[XenoX101]

Hm, I don't know, this seems to look a bit dated, I thought viridi-anne were 'past' this stuff. Was hoping for something a bit more innovative, but it is a bit hard to tell with the photography.

Thanks for the images, Devils. The leathers and tailored coats look really nice. I think Viridi leather is overshadowed. Everything I've handled has been pretty amazing in person.

Being able to see the textures of a lot of these pieces makes a difference. I think VA always does a solid job. Nothing excruciatingly new or creative here but very, very solid on the whole.

I definitely love the blazer and leathers...and the cuts on the other outerwear pieces are classic and sound.
Does anyone know if all of the footwear is VA? I enjoy a good bulbous, upturned toe on a boot as much as the next guy but I don't think I could pull off a few of those.

I can see how they anchor these outfits in a very specific way but in contrast to some of the more classic cuts, they just look a bit exaggerated to me.
Rather I should say, I like the way they look but I don't believe I'd like the way they might look on me.

I absolutely love VA. This is a solid collection but definately not one of their strongest imo.
Always have some fantastic outerwear and trousers. Im rather intrigued by the boots which seem to have a kind of leather spats over the top.
Can anybody who hit up the stealth showroom divulge some more info please.

i'm assuming all of the footwear is VA and that they're just bringing in a new toebox style. I agree that VA always has a pleasant fabric selection. Both times I've been to the flagship in Tokyo I've come away heartbroken that they don't stock 4 or 5's and I can't actually try on any outerwear.

Really interested in seeing more shots of these kicks too:

I don't think the toe box above looks too much different than the one on this boot from FW09 on sale at the Archive:

Some of the signature V-A shapes remain, but im somewhat underwhelmed - doesn't appear like much of an evolution / progression from the previous A/W collection. Some of the goosedown jackets have been absolutely fantastic in the past - the high necked long coat appears to follow in that tradition

That's Eiko Ishikioka's work, right? Incredible costumes.
