This collection is definitely a grower. At first I didn't like it at all, and still the first ten or so looks I just don't love or particularly get. Sarah Mowers review on style.com calls it a "computer age vision of couture". I don't know if I necessarily agree. It's not entirely technologically themed, in fact I can't really see a definitive theme in the collection at all. Like I said, it's a grower, and perhaps I'll change my mind when I've looked through it a few more times, and seen it on a couple of backs in the fall/winter 2010 for which it is intended. I don't know, it's confusing, in some ways I can see that it's completely wearable and in another way I predict it for dozens of worst dressed lists, no matter who is wearing it. I do like the third dress though, see, not even finished the post and it's growing on me already!

  2. Give it time, it'll get you in the end. Well, maybe only half of it, but still! :)
