I don't know now. Some pieces I like, but the circles idea was taking to shed and beat. It is very weak in my eyes to take one idea/technique that is quite insignificant and overuse. Some do good job, others don't.
After looking at it again, the part I love the most, the random gorilla pieces really do seem very out of place. They have no relevance to the rest of the collection in any way, its appearing as if its thrown of literally just for a reaction.
I really hate the pieces with the fur trimming, however I think I may be the only one who actually loves the circle pieces, especially the black ones, i think some are really stunning.

i was looking forward to see his show because he's the new designer i get most excited about, but this is disappointing... i really like many of the dresses and leather pieces actually, but the collection as a whole is kind of repetitive, the gorilla print seems a bit random (although i like it a lot), those orange leopard prints are kind of unnecessary and the maribou trimmings...i don't even know what to say about them.
still love him though. he's young and is just trying different things... hopefully f/w 2009 will be as great as his past collections
Inspired by "The Planet of the Apes," "The Flintstones" and Raquel Welch, Christopher Kane’s spring collection wittily mined the animal kingdom. The results had some models looking sexy in red-and-yellow leopard intarsia sweaters, while others took on a reptilian air in chiffon minidresses with huge scalelike discs and scalloped edging. There were peach, black and deep orange chiffon robes with marabou trims, along with a black dress with a screen-printed gorilla and a pink chiffon one with black embroidered scales. The theme grew a little repetitive as the show wore on, and Kane’s scales worked better in light-as-air organza dresses than on heavy leather skirts, which were a touch awkward. Still, his original take on fashion keeps him one of London’s most buzzed-about designers.
