OK. So its trite. We all know who coined the phrase and she's silly. But CL's last (hopefully not) collection takes my breath away. Necessity is the mother of invention? Or maybe, the lack of access to new supplies was a blessing in disguise. Whatever cliche you want to use, there are no words that adequately describe how brilliant this collection was. I look at the photos over an over and I don't breathe for minutes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401355923091588637.post-78587635120941439962009-07-30T08:17:15.760-04:002009-07-30T08:17:15.760-04:00Bravo Fluff on todays NYTs article!

I see it as an homage paid to his team but also as an act to deal with his own responsibilities and not being a victim. This is noble in a way.<br />What is even more interesting is that situation took Lacroix on a more restrained path. It was a rupture, someone dealing with a new environment and still his voice, his talent are here, well in the now.<br />What i love about this collection is that I compare it to a successful encore at a show, or the dessert that still trigger your appetite after an eight course menu. Even when you think you are done, you have seen it all and ready to conclude you have this nice touch to surprise you. Hopefully it will evolve and take the direction of something great.ASnoreply@blogger.com
