Fall 2010: Marc Jacobs

After such a series of duds, this one, at last, succeeds. Still, it's not the work of genius (56 exits, wah lau!)that a well-known fashion critic will have us believe. All I need to add is that this collection furthers Mr Jacobs's themes of "awkward beauty" and "fit is nothing", themes which he began with his watershed grunge collection for Perry Ellis... Oh ages ago. This collection are seemingly inspired by/ designed for blogger Tavi (can't you just see her in every look?) and since Tavi already dresses like this thrifting, you really need to question why anyone would make 'new' clothes to fit ill. Well, what is the function of clothes, what fashion?
Just to be contrary, I've picked out these genius looks garunteed to make any girl look like a blinking clod. Don't you just love it?
