" So what if the reviews were dreadful? This was more or less what Mr. Slimane had expected. Mr. BergĂ© said that the two had discussed the reactions and compared them to those faced by Mr. Saint Laurent with his famously scandalous 1971 collection, which took inspiration from 1940s flea-market fashion. The groundbreaking fashion critic Eugenia Sheppard described it as “frankly, definitely and completely hideous.”
If Mr. Saint Laurent could survive that, there is hope for Mr. Slimane."
I wonder if there may indeed be some truth in that. I haven't been terribly fond of the SL collections but over time and based on personal observation/experience of the world in general I've learned to be wary of critical reception in the present.
