Only a few shows have caught my eye this season. I used to really enjoy fashion but recently have become so... bored by runway shows. Probably because I've become increasingly repelled by the fashion market and it's push to sell sell sell. Even the idea of a "fashion season" and "new now" that the industry creates is tiring. It's crazy that runway shows are planned to highlight fashions a full year and a half in advance. At the same time I enjoy when designers push back to create pieces that are creative and not boring stuff that they know will sell. If you're going to sell your designs for uber expensive prices why not at least make them stand out. Yet there are still a few unique shows thank goodness. Here are a few of my favorites thus far:
1. Tsumori Chisato
Mixed patterns, interesting shapes and accessories. Super eclectic
2. Lemaire
Creative layering, interesting shapes, delicate pattern details. I imagine it becomes wearable once you break down the outfits into single pieces to mix into your existing wardrobe... and I wouldn't turn down one of the camera shaped bags.
3. Charlotte Olympia
Just for fun... this show looks like it would have been a blast to attend with the live band.
