Rick Owens

Risky and brave move, though I think would stay on the runway, still Rick did an amazing job this season . and those glasses..............

Raf Simons

I don't know if you agree with me but this collection seems fit for the Jil Sander label and the Jil Sander collection he sent two weeks back is fit for his own brand. But, mislabelling aside, this collection really speaks what a master Raf Simons is when it comes to cut and tailoring.

Yves Saint Laurent

Very good color palette, clean, wearable, not too dressy, classics redefined and given edge that only a careful eye would notice as in the case of the second picture' button. I'm really into Stefano Pilati's work.:)

Junya Watanabe

Yes, Junya Watanabe. What made this collection a stand out was the utilitarianism of it. And this was the only collection with looks that proved even a carpenter or a gardener's outfit could be something fashionable to wear. It wasn't a collection that would please but leaves you thinking " Yeah, it could work."

Calvin Klein

Now I'm not into sports, but the contradicting ideas of minimalism and maximalism Italo Zucchelli put in this outing was one of the strongest points among other shows.

Lanvin

The elements of darkness and lightness were so well balanced. Started with very stiff pieces but loosened up 'til the end.

Dior Homme

I like how the clothes looked so undetailed here but for sure up close would be the tricks.
