no cadet is FW08 - this one :

gareth pugh fw 2011 If you're very thin it might fit you, a lot of pugh's women's stuff is androgynous in cut (according to the folks over at sz).

I don't know, the nature of progression in fashion is kind of inscrutable (again, look at sz for debates on whether creators are stagnant or not), and I'm sure if you were really into KVA you could find plenty of diversity and progress. Judging from this collection, Pugh seems capable of evolution and diversity (colors! holy ****!), and his design virtuosity and affinity for interesting construction (see his student work with inflatable garments, and his basically unwearable early runway stuff) give him a lot of room to maneuver.

Aren't SCHORL and Tornado Mart one-note labels? Sustained focus on a given look or approach isn't always a bad thing.

This is the kind of thing you could write a scifi movie around in 30 seconds. Hell yes.
