It's got a little Stevie Nicks / Laurel Canyon 70s vibe to me. (nttawwt) I still like his general skinny bitchy rocker thing.
new logo SLP not at cool as YSL tho.


Haha, I thought the exact same thing. It's pretty inescapable.

I didn't think the SLP collection was bad but it didn't seem that exciting. I didn't really care for the leather or jeans. The hats were pretty cool but a bit gimmicky in retrospect. The whole collection feels more boring without them so I can see why he had all the models wear them. I must admit that there were certain looks I liked a good bit on their own though.

i really liked it. i thought it was very inspiring. i didnt like the leather pants either. loved the hats. its like hedi took the past few years and let his ideas age in his head and the flavors mellowed out and became more refined and balanced. the only thing is like hendrix mentioned everybody else has been doing it during and while he was gone and it seems stale in comparison. the first thing i thought when i saw the collection was ann d

Reminds me more of Theyskens' than Ann, her most recent collection notwithstanding.

How can this be the "same collection" when this is Hedi's first womenswear collection?

We're so conditioned to expect some crazy level of artistry and esoterism in runway shows that it's easy to forget that they're ultimately for buyers and for press coverage, not art shows. Hedi didn't blaze any new trails but he released a very beautiful, very focused collection full of wearable clothing. Honestly, that's good to me. Maybe I'm just not intellectual enough to appreciate fashion on such a level, but I prefer good clothes over statements. I guess it's no coincidence that most of my favourite brands release variations on the same pieces every season ...

I don't think Hedi should be held accountable for others aping his aesthetic, anyway.

It's about the logo on the front, not the name on the back.

That's pretty terrible but I commend him for hiding his face.

Ordered something from Nomad last sunday, didn't receive any notification, emailed them thursday for an update, never got a response but got a tracking number today, my package has been delivered... to some address 3,500 miles away.

Yay. Ironically they charge an absurd amount for shipping. I'd just call but my damn phone's broken. Hopefully they just gave me the wrong tracking #.

Also SLP was awesome.
