Technicals skills are important for CCP and he always insists on the specific ones he has (traditionnal tailoring) and the importance of "das Sakko" in his work, but you're completely wrong about the hierarchy. Technic is second and always serves the transposition into the clothes of his reflexion about - to say it very briefly - what is a garment ?/what is a body ?/how do body and garment relate together ? Nothing technical there, but a reflexion that involves history of art, history of the human body representations and also some kind of qualitative mathematics.
And you're not right neither about the "Zeitgeist", even it's not really my cup of tea, since the way CCP creates, produces and sells is definitely an implicit critic of the mass consumption society and, of course, of the way most of the other fashion designers are working.
And please, noobs, don't ask me how such expensive clothes can be sign of critic of consumption society.
As for Aitor Throup, I agree that he's one of the most interesting designers of now, and from what I've seen and handled from the previous collection, the attention to fabric is as well an important part of his work.
EDIT : I like the way Faust and I are playing the official antagonists here.
Or should I say ?
