I'm not too sure if I like this collection or not, but I am sure of one thing: Riccardo Tisci has an editing problem. This collection is comprised of equal hits as there are misses. Many pieces are wonderfully tailored, but others (chiffon dresses, thigh shorts) lack in execution to their counterparts. For one thing, the Rick Owen boots don't do the collection any justice. And secondly, isn't this a little bit reminiscent of Balenciaga's F/W 2011 collection? There are stellar pieces, however: the knitwears and the dexterously constructed coats (these will sell like crazy). Many of these looks would be better had they been styled differently, or rather, less: simplicity is key. Is it just me or is Givenchy's HC so much stronger than its RTW lately?
