THE MISSES:

Balenciaga

“Terribly boring, terribly unflattering, terrible everything. He’s getting progressively worse with each collection, and if he doesn’t start trying something new then I don’t see him lasting much longer at the house.” [HeatherAnne

“Not a collection to remember… I know it must be difficult to design for Balenciaga after Nicolas [Ghesquière] but come on there is no signature, no Balenciaga DNA. I don’t think he’ll stay long either.” [Lifeispeachy

“Same s**t, different season. Nothing new or exciting. Would it have killed him to use a little color? Both in the clothes and casting.” [TomFordforGucci]

Dries Van Noten

“I hate this so much that I feel like weeping. It’s like Missoni and Etro threw up on a Dries Van Noten collection. I’m jealous that the men got an elegant and luxurious Spring collection from him, and us women got this grossness.” [HeatherAnne

“This unfortunately is messy and repetitive. And the shoes are awful! So tired of ugly fashion sandals.” [dior_couture1245

“It’s garish frankly. Just too much. There are always nice pieces; it’s Dries after all. But I am disappointed because I feel it lacks his usual elegance and fine balance. He’s tipped the scales here, and maybe intentionally. However it doesn’t work, not for me anyhow.” [Not Plain Jane]

Anthony Vaccarello

“Ugh this is terrible. He’s awful. It’s all so fake-sexy and street-style ready.” [dior_couture1245]

“The latex WordArt is also quite horrendous.” [Mr-Dale

“Oh, look, a collection that completely dates itself right from Look #1! This is terrible. The WordArt is… a bad idea, I’ll leave it at that.” [StoneSkipper
