Rick Owens Men's S/S16

[pk!]

Any pictures of Jera after being punched by Ricky?

(Also a lot of this collection felt like a toned down Faun with a different palette. Not that it's bad, we just see a lot of the geometric leather to fabric tops and exaggerated, folded tops over shorts and high boots. Except the lack of cool embroidery pieces.)

It's nice to see quite a few new shapes coming from RO. He's been moving to more rigid fabrics to create his architectural look, and I like how he used softer fabrics with the boxier shapes to give more flow. I think the thing I like the most is that it actually looks like things you can wear in the summer. A lot of designers seem to embrace spring while summer gets neglected.

The footwear seems really weak unfortunately.

“Owens titled it ‘Cyclops’ and talked about anal prolapse when discussing the circular prints (in retrospect, the bubbling, odd volume of certain pieces, in a shiny scarlet coated canvas, had an intestinal feel to them also). That’s Owens being a bit teenage – he himself dubbed the portholes that flashed his models penises last season “puerile,” and there’s the feel of a naughty schoolboy when he deadpans stuff backstage about sodomy and masturbation to explain clothes that other designers would attach hifalutin intellectualism to.”
