Why so many looks? Why have 40 looks walk the runway, some hits some misses, when you could do a bit of self-editing, make the whole affair more intimate, with a slower pace, and send out 25?

maybe because fall winter tends to give me high expectations from dries this was an extreme letdown, especially after spring summer, the dries-light collection, weak and uninteresting. this fall i cant shake the feeling he was completely uninspired and no amount of brain racking brought about a concept he got exited to explore so he drew on past collections and safe designs. it happens and i forgive him, this time...

From Cathy Horyn's review: "What may not be obvious is that many of the garments are asymmetric — one sleeve might be belled, the other straight; one shoulder may be raglan, but not the other. What this fine collection demands is to be seen up close."
Makes it more interesting, no?

Asymmetric is an element amongst many, though interesting,
it's hard to ignore the rest, especially in this case, as it seems
overshadowed. To me at least.Are you afraid of women, Doctor?
Of course.

which are not apparent by a quick glance, as also
mentioned in your Horyn quote. I was not dismissing
this.
