I think designers need to make up their mind as to whether they are going to make high fashion garments or contemporary RTW pieces. The muddling of the two does nothing good for either.

I dunno, maybe I just don't get it.

Also, the model in the MJ dress looks like Jody Foster in Taxi Driver.

this season i haven't liked any of chloe or marc jacobs runway stuff, i've only liked the rtw pieces so i'm glad designers do make rtw stuff especially since i can afford it occasionally and it makes me feel super fancy because they share a name with high fashion runway stuff... even if the runway stuff is ugly. i can see how it could pull down the image of the high fashion collection if regular people can afford to wear it's label..

also, that girl is rather jodi-esque in the face.

from what i remember, the runway line is comprised of one-of-a-kind couture pieces that go the highest bidder, either for that person to wear themselves (rare) or turn into a toned-down ready-to-wear line...

but i'm guessing you're talking about "marc jacobs" vs. "marc," etc.

oh, i'm adding you. i forgot since i've been back on here!

Yeah I like the yellow MJ dress and the purple Chloe dress too. Some of the other things, and it could be the camera angles or the lighting or something, just seem a little confused and disproportionate. That very well could be the point though.

This is also coming from a man. And men's style is relegated primarily to suits and an array of small details within the suit. So it is probably no wonder that I am a fan of the two simplest garments shown here.
