    Christian Lacroix FW07/08 - Paris



    I like this a lot, the silhouette, the knits, the details. It's all very feminine and serious. I like the looser pants, have always liked them on women.

          Ok, now I got to the 2nd part of the show and maybe it's not so serious [:D] Some color combinations definitely don't work and some cuts are too doll-like. But I like a lot of it nonetheless.

            I thought this was very adorable. He really made the couture to RTW transition work. I can just imagine that the details are out of this world.



            Footwear is crazy!!! [:O] But very Lacroix.



            ...I mean the ephemeral, the fugitive, the contingent, the half of art whose other half is the eternal and the immutable.

                These shoes look like they are straight out of the "the legend of old gregg" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbnwzpSCbvU) from the Mighty Boosh haha.

                  I really like this, I feel like he's come a long way. I can't say I've ever really been a fan of his menswear though. Maybe soon....

                    Perhaps this is a naive comment, but I found these clothes really busy. There are all these decorative flourishes were going horizontally across the waist/lower chest (in the form of belts, embroidery, and the way that the layers landed on each other) that I thought broke up and the flow/movement of the outfits--making the models seem pencil-thin and static. I understand that Lacroix is crazy about details, but I felt like the individual pieces were fighting each other...

                      He has menswear? I didn't know that.



                      Seventh, yes, Lacroix gives a lot of attention to decorating - I don't think he's going to get away from that. I'm just glad he's found a new financial backer and do this.

                        Yep, but its kind of รก la "Christian Lacroix Jeans" if you know what I mean. Print tees etc etc. well at least, thats all that I've seen. I"m sure he has more.
