abstracted and shape based clothing never really ceases to be relevant, even when the original work itself becomes dated. there isn't a "next" in this sense; no one is going to stop riffing on poiret or fortuny or chanel and i don't think people will stop reappropriating ideas from the work of yamamoto or rick or galliano in the future. i can tell you that the next step isn't going to be a stupid gimmick and it won't be in tiresome reworkings of minutiae which has passed for menswear in a lot of circles up until now. but if you want to know what h&m or whoever is going to be aping in the future, i'd watch promising students who are already proposing interesting things with shape and cutting, the next generation building on owens who built on vionnet, and guess at what part of their aesthetic could be cheaply copied and reliably sewn by bangladeshi wage slavery.
