Is It So Wrong...?
Balmain: As beautiful as most of these clothes are, and even despite the fact that I'm willing to overlook the flared pants, there's still something wrong with this show. I saw the first two outfits (On Daria and Racquel, above), and I thought "This is gorgeous and of-the-moment." But then as the show went on, I realized that no matter how luxurious and ethereal but still powerful these pieces are, they seem dated. The 80s silhouettes and the metallics just seem so out of touch after all the '40s and '20s influences seen on other runways. I know it's just the trend whore in me saying this, but it all feels a little old. None the less, there were some amazing pieces, and as a whole, the show was beautiful.
