London Fashion Week 2021

JW Anderson underwhelms with another take on the stick-thin model lost inside a big sack look, but Erdem came through with some much-needed classic lines.

Beautiful gown, poorly tailored and matched with washing-up gloves.

OP I think you might be on the wrong website.

What a bunch of shit and, I'm sorry, but runway models are ugly.

Anderson's portfolio this year apparently included nude models wrapped in blankets that look like they came from Target.

Ugh. These ensembles are dreadful.

Designers should have gone for simply tailored and colorful designs.

Everyone has been cooped up and socially distanced for a year.

We want to see that looks that look approachable and inviting. Not shit that looks like the fancy grim reaper, invited to hangout longer after the CoViD party is over.

Darfur Orphan, did you get a modeling gig?

I enjoyed Duro Olowu for those patterns and Erdem for the cuts.

I’m hoping some brave woman beats the shit out of the strappy cut-out queens at Prada and Dior. Every other piece featured for pre-Fall has cut-outs at the abdomen and/or upper arm with twee bullshit strings. Who ever wears that shit will have to be super toned and will never be able to sit down.

I’m still seeing a lot of the LLadro-like circus clown shit and it’s cropping up in menswear. They’re supposed to be getting people in the mood to fuck - not dressing them in twee scary clown outfits from IT.

That big knit squash dress is a scream! Who on Earth wants a bulky fabric, big wide bell shape around their ass? It looks terrible on a malnourished stick figure, it will look awful on anyone else.

It’s nonsense. Like so much of high fashion.

The dress in the OP looks like Ethel's French potato sack dress.

lol @ complaining about a model being thin, would you rather an obese woman model it?

by Anonymousreply 12March 3, 2021 3:45 PM

Perfect garb for shoplifting.

R13 that is SUCH a good idea...you could probably get a couple microwaves and a coffee maker in there. I wonder if that's how ALT gets his appliances?

R12, I wasn't the one complaining, but I am also bored of these malnourished cookie cutter models as well as the nepotism models. I would love to see models like the ones we had in the 90ies (before heroin chic), beautiful, vibrant, fit looking and alive. They were recognizable unlike the skeleton women we have been looking at for the past 25 years.

And both creations in OP's picture look like something I could wear on the sofa while binge watching Netflix, which is not what I want to see right now.

I liked this Duro Olowu, it reminded me of that brief period in the 1990s where there were lots of mixed patterns that didn't match except for the colors.

Is this a benefit to raise money for Biafra?

Those gowns are horrible.

R8 here, This is the shit I’m talking about and I see it popping up everywhere. It doesn’t allow movement and it’s not like it appreciates a woman’s form. I’m a guy, so I’m not allowed to be offended on behalf of rich people, but it will filter down to retail. I will be seeing normal people tightly wrapped like sausages and it’s stupid.

It's called "midriff floss" which makes it even worse, r22.

The actual ugliest girl in my school became a working runway model for 7 years. She was 5’11, concentration camp skinny and had the face of Rossy De Palma without the glamour and charm. She was luckily quite intelligent and studied finance part time. She now sells diamonds.

Duro Olowu sounds like a meh dish at a fusion restaurant.

Duro Olowu sounds like a fancy undercoat you’d spray under an expensive European sedan.

Duro Olowu sounds like a 90’s club kid rave drug I never got around to trying before I got sober.
