...a lot of this just looks super unfinished to me... like someone's paper mache school project.

Dunno, maybe that's what she was going for, but I'm super ambivalent. I don't even feel like she's going for ugly in an interesting way.

love it. cdg has this awesome geometric language that only rei knows. she makes the human form a wall from which she hangs the art of her clothing. although i sort of wish she focused more on one or two shapes rather than such a wide range.

a bit of madness was exactly what was needed to give things a kick up the bum after a pretty boring season. thom browne part 2 only weirder and less obvious

i can't even look at other shows after looking at this. everything seems so...bland. this must be what coming down from heroin feels like.

This is balls-to-the-wall insane.

The shoes are the best bit, wow. Also those cage-like constructions.

It's difficult to really criticise this because it's so all over the shop and divorced from reality but as a show and an art display it's outstanding.

I'm even more impressed after seeing this in person; DSM got a couple of the show dresses in which are magnificent. The pink teddybear dress in particular. There are a bunch of dresses made in this really fragile, almost waxy, crepe-y poly material - feels and looks almost like the napkins you get in a certain type of mid range cafes - in bright pink and black, super cool. This dress went into production which is excellent. Loads of weird frilly knickers/bloomers too.

The coolest though were the shoes, same as the runway models, they're surprisingly robust. They're only like £400 too.

Homme plus is great too, i want this jacket

CDG looks nice
if they could make the fabric last longer
