I normally don’t like Rick Owens (too futuristic for me), but this is the most refined that I have seen him. He certainly favors the avante-garde that’s for sure; however, this is a more streamlined Rick Owens. It’s positively lovely. While there is certainly quirkiness to it, Rick Owens presents a surprisingly minimalist and elegant collection for spring. I love how the wacky futuristic aspect that is characteristic of Owens comes out in the beauty and hair. I love the long gigantic combs sticking out of every girl’s bun.
Rick Owens lives up to his talent. He offers uniquely refined silhouettes in serene palettes. They are dramatic, well-crafted (with mixed fabrics to boot), and well thought out. The bodices are well-shaped with tucked in leather or gauzy silk. He subtly emphasizes a woman’s silhouette with his dresses that neatly nip at the waist in various ways that are uniquely Rick Owens. I love what he chooses to work with too; it’s like crepe-chiffon and crepe-linen. They seem so delightful to touch and easily conform to shape.
