CONCRETE RUNWAY

Ok quick rant! When I first heard Givenchy wasn’t doing couture for a while, I died on the inside. Givenchy is the couture collection I look forward the most especially since Riccardo’s aestethic is close to my own. After I stopped weeping and pulling my hair out over this decision, it was time for the Fall 2013 collection and I waited with breaths bated for my Givenchy fix and when it finally came, I wasn’t super impressed with Givenchy Fall 2013. It was good but Givenchy basic. I’ve seen it from Riccardo before. It was basically a mashup of his Fall 2011 and Resort 2013. Now on to McQueen. I checked every day for the McQueen updates and my heart dropped when Sarah only gave us 10 looks. I get it, she’s pregnant but come on! The looks we did get were brilliant and I loved them but right when I got a taste, she snatched the plate away. I’m giving you very dirty looks Mrs. Burton. Now new designers- I loved Alexander Wang’s debut at Balenciaga. When it was first announced he would be taking over, I was sad cuz I loved Nicolas G. but I always knew he would do a good job and he did. He made the label his own but I could definitely see the Cristobal B influences. And I NEED the crackling paint jacket! And on to Hedi’s second womenswear collection for Saint Laurent. I loved the first gothic inspired collection, it was very me and I loved this one as well! Who knew 90s California grunge could be so fucking chic! LOVE!
