I don't know - it's too bitsy and puffy and patchwork-y, I guess mess does describe it. Head to toe Rick should always be possible (me hoping to be living and walking proof of it), but here it's just all too much.
Then again he can't have peaked with Crust, and I appreciate he is trying to move on. I just question if his customer is loyal enough to move on with him or if they wouldn't have preferred further perfection of what he has achieved so far. I know I do. And this does seem to straddle future and past (lots of echoes of earlier noughties), but I would have preferred present and future.
Then again, I am sure it will all look great in blackHi. I like your necklace. - It's actually a rape whistle, but the whistle part fell off.

yeh ... wow, this is a bit of a mess. I was expecting more from this collection, because I was really impressed by the mens. There's a few good pieces in there but it's gonna take some time to find them all. Not feeling the puffy sleeping bag coat things. I can see the Gareth influence, that alice mentioned, in some of the pieces..
... I did see a nice leather in there somewhere

Instead, he's folded up bolts of fabric and stuffed them down the fronts of skirts.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

I agree with what's been said, this is very disappointing. I can't see myself doing any of these looks. There are some good leather pieces in there but I could take or leave them. I got excited after I saw the men's collection, perhaps I should see how some of the smallest men's sizes work on me...subvert normality.

Looking at both Pugh and Rick Owens, they seem to have raised the bar on a technical level as well. Anyone can bang out a rick owens style leather these days, but below is going to be hard to emulate. Read something similar about Balenciaga a while back, that they are so advanced in their construction that "fast fashion" can't go there.

I wouldn't say it looks shit. I find it quite intriguing.
There some funny stuff going on, like the pattern in the tights gets continued on in the leather at the front of the shoe. I think if you got confronted by a woman wearing this in real life your jaw would be on the floor.
