So Marc Jacobs has left the Building. And in his place... Nicholas Ghesquiere. Shoot Me Now! Louis Vuitton has Replaced Wildfire Talent with Horrifically Inept Talent. There goes my Love of all things Louis Vuitton! This was destined to be a move of the most Egregious Scale. Marc Jacobs, A man so full of Whimsical and Blissful Talent being replaced with someone that by Calling him a HACK would be a Compliment, Like Nicholas Ghesquiere...???? WHY? Does! Not! Com! Pute!
So when show time rolled around, I, For one was ready to Laugh my ass off AND Cringe at how GHASTLY I was assured the collection was going to be. So, Colour Me Dumbstruck when out strolled Freja Beha in a Sleek Black topcoat and Vanilla A-Line dress under looking As mod as Diana Rigg in "The Avengers" Jaw, Officially Dropped!
From this Opening, Ghesquiere continued to Delight and Confound with SUPER Sharp, Wearable, Covetable clothes made for Real, Urban Women! There was of course, some of Ghesquiere's Quirk in the mix, and that's what made it Really Desirable. Here, Those Kooks of Nicholas' were right in step with the Legacy of Jacobs' and with the type of clothes being shown! Everything had the Speed and Efficiency of Zips and Snaps and the Freedom of A-Lines. It was all Very Efficient and Streamlined. Plus, That Black Croc coat at Exit No. 26 is Officially Godlike!
SO, By the time it was all said and done... Ghesquiere had proven what had been thought Nigh Possible.... He can Actually Design Beautiful, Real, Meaningful Clothes that work on Real Women in Real Life. That was an Accomplishment of Herculean Stature. Let's hope Nic doesn't start to Backslide into old habits and bring those Atrocities from his Balenciaga Past to the Coveted house of LV! That cannot Happen. Not EVER! There is too much Special here, at THIS House, To Contaminate with such Perversions of Fashion!
That's All.
Bye4Now!
