Rick Owens Men's SS11 Paris

[Fade to Black]

^^^

I love these meaningful coincidences, they are popping up more and more often nowadays. A sign o' the times?

I liked this show, will probably be looked at later on down the line as a bit of an oddity in his oeuvre, and that may be why...a curious in-between everything presentation featuring some recurrent shapes, it's an enigmatic one for sure.

I am a bit lost on this collection but maybe that's the point.

From showroom

There are few more from this blog, where i got them: http://dianepernet.typepad.com/diane...guislain-.html

I really like the 'bootcut' pants. I mean they're not really bootcut, but I lack a better word right now. But I guess they would lose their appeal on my somewhat short legs.
Then again ... Rick also delivers the fitting heels.

i really like the shorts this season.

also, that diamond geometrical print that charles is wearing in that last post seems so 'gareth pugh' to me.

white/brown lab coat ftw. i find it pretty quirky,but i can dig it.








also this . im all for accesories that looks like can be used as a weapon.probably the old punk rock in me,when i use to wear spiked bracelets.

i do love all the graceful and architectural elements of Rick, but i am getting tired of the punk/sport/rock-influences. I just want to remove all the bullshit and keep the core. the monumentality and the shoulders and waist... i want a rick coat :/

errrr, what you are criticizing IS the core...

[Heirloom]

i guess since i come from a background without relation to any subculture I find those parts irrelevant and empty. I can only speak from my viewpoint.

[philip nod]

a background without influence
from the underground.
outlandish!

sounds like you want a house in the sky...

[Fade to Black]

this collection is quirky. It's all those influenced elements of Rick nailed down to the vaguest idea without any remotely pintpointable reference other than himself. A postmodern classic, my favorite O in years.

it's not impossible you know. the womens collections have less of those influences, and more shape based garments.

[Chant]

Absolutely true. Have the very same expectation.
And I'd say that Rick - or whoever designs the mens - is moving away from the street/sportswear influences.

I noticed that, and I'm happy he does. I just think it can't go fast enough.
