I dont't particularly like this collection. I think there's some nice ideas like the contrast lapels on the jackets, the shirts with the elbow joints, red wingtips, etc, but I dislike the styling and the extreme layering...

I'm sure the die hard Ann fans will like it better than I do :)

I dont like the styling of this collection, even though its so simular to past collections. I do however think some individual pieces stripped of their ''outfit'' are really nice though .

It's a relief that she's showing some new tailoring and some different fabrics for the first time in quite a while. I don't think there's much here I would actually buy though, apart from the shoes.

Re: Ann Demeulemeester SS08

I'm half and half on this collection. I'm loving the black and white looks (as usual) but I'm not so sure on the red and square print fabric. The sneakers look very, very cool! I'm glad she was able to change them a little and make them a bit more unique from something like a chuck taylor.

I also think it looks a bit heavy but I thought the same thing about last Spring's collection and when I handeled the pieces in the stores, I changed my mind right away. She always uses the finest of fabrics and the weight is usually just perfect for Spring.

The styling is so distracting....i really dislike it. Very hard to see the clothes, and I'm sure there are some good ones.

I absolutely love the touches of red underneath the jackets and on the feet.

Re: Ann Demeulemeester SS08

there's too much layering going on in some of the pics, which makes it hard to judge the individual items. and yea, i'm not too sureon the red tone on some of the stuff... would rather see everything in a monochromatic black and white looks

Re: Ann Demeulemeester SS08

I rather like the red tone, but I think the usual styling does not quite suit this as well. It always looks incredible when the outfits are entirely black and white (then it looks really graphic and stark), but this collection seems to have more patterns and more lines and prints than usual, so it ends up just looking really busy. Too busy.

Looks like there are some great pieces, though, when you really try and break the outfits down. I prefer this to N(N)'s version myself, regardless.

Re: Ann Demeulemeester SS08

Here's my favs;

I like the last shirt but I would be worried it would look a little costumey. I still love a lot of the sheer tops, waistcoats, and airy pants but I would agree with most here that it is somewhat hard to distinguish some of the pieces. I'm also not too fond of the short coats and waistcoats, it's just never been my thing though.

I would honestly love to see Ann work with greys, I think it could be incorporated well into her collections.
