Sportmax.

Fri. 02/21/2014.











Jackson Pollock can be a Messy Inspiration, Messy for his Drip Paintings that are so universally famous and Messy because he wasn't really the greatest guy... for Fall 2014 Sportmax Evaded the Messiness with some clothes that were Top Notch winners, Even though it did include some rather unfortunate Duds also. The opening with Leopard and Snake fused together was Interesting, Unnecessary, Maybe, but an Interesting Idea, Melding Snake leather forearms to the the Sleeves of many pieces, But a trick that wore out it's usefulness and welcome Quickly.

A Black suit with White Leather Forearms was Sensational at Exit No. 7, if not Awkward with it's unflattering Skirt length. A Bi-Colour Snake Coat with a Bell Skirt at Exit No. 11 is a Competitor for one of the Top Pieces of the season While The Slimmer All Black version at Exit No. 16 Just might win that competition for it was so ESSENTIAL and Covetous! It was here that the Wheels began to come off the Bus!  Sheer Panels, Blah Colour Combos, and then those Feverish Pollock Prints were Dizzying in a Vertiginous way and made one's eyes Sore! It wasn't as if they were even BAD. It was just too much of them, Smaller doses would have helped things Tremendously. A Trimmer Edit would have done the same.

In the end, The Pollock Prints were rather Novel and Pretty. Just they overwhelmed a bit in large doses. The Sportmax team always does an Innovative and Interesting Job each season and manages to separate itself from the Identity of the Parent House, Max Mara. Their collections could not have been More Diametrically Opposed, But the odd part is, Sportmax is the one that would be declared The Winner were it put to a Vote! 










That's All.










Bye4Now!
