I enjoyed it. It was nice to see a celebration of body and shape and colour as opposed to white size zero models.

>>6996159
>as opposed to white size zero models.

dont hurt urself

>>6996151
Twerk where have you been bruh?

>>6996169
flew 2 paris 2 step 4 rick's show ofc

>>6996159
>white
where did this come from
there are plenty of black famous models when did it all of a sudden become about race

>>6996179
>>6996167
Probably shouldn't have said white lol, idk it was different and I liked it, didn't really mean 2 sound edgy.

>>6996159
nice troll lad

fun show
le 4chan hate machine getting upset is something no one gives a shit about
menswear was also fun

>what fashion needed

more gimmicks instead of putting the focus on the clothes? kewl

>>6996204
>being this new to fashion world
you coulda w8ed to post until a few more season m8

>>6996185
it was a celebration of the body as much as any other rick show is but it wasn't about subverting the traditional womenswear model or celebrating diversity or w/e. not at all. it was just about athleticism, movement, and that sort of ascetic devotion to self-improvement that rick's always endorsed

>>6996204
lmao dont hurt urself m8

clothes were also nice by the way
rick is so accessible these days and i think it's a good thing for him to be

finally watched it rather than just looking at photos and
hu dis

also about the actual show, very few pieces i actually liked personally but thats true for all rick with me, I like the idea and what he's about but the look isnt for me

>>6996213

>>6996283
I'd like to see you fight one of them

>>6996283
they spend ten minutes dancing, i think theyd do fine
like 2 see u take a 20 minute jog tho

srsly tho the models weight has really nothing to do with the show so why is anyone even discussing it

>>6996292

>srsly tho the models weight has really nothing to do with the show so why is anyone even discussing it

Yeah it did. It made every piece look like shit

>>6996288

Fuck off you fat piece of shit

I bet Rick knew that reactions to this show would separate his true fans from the bandwagon-jumpers.

idk about it having super deep meaning and feminism shit but

it was definitely entertaining and i assumed it was sort of a joke to be the opposite of usual shows

do you think it was a formulated decision for them to not be very good?

>>6996294
clothes looked fine. did u even watch the video or did u just scroll lazily thru the style.com pics?

>>6996301
ikr
i remember men's mountain when he did the high waisted trou and a lot of ppl were like "noooo muh africacore silhouette!"
or men's naska with the skirts, buncha h8ers came outta the woodtwerq

>>6996318
lol swerve

Too bad the show wasn't about clothes.

>>6996323

I watched the entire video and it all seemed like a huge joke

>>6996338
well, its never only about the clothes. even when u put them on mannequins for displays in barneys or w/e its more than just clothes u got lifestyle associations n shit. it's part of the fun, seeing models twerq on huge cement slabs and then going into a gray concrete bunker 2 look at the clothes on huge slabs of ebony and alabaster and eat silver liquorice to a thundering techno soundtrack
if u wanted just clothes u could go 2 walmart 4 that

>>6996357
Twerk did you see poet's skirt fit?

>>6996455
yep

>ascetic devotion to self-improvement

was this show their first workout on the road 2 self improvement or r u just being dumb again

Loved the beige with pink fits those were great.

>>6996503
fuck you homo cunt

>>6996510
That big white women in the black leather(Not sure if remembering correctly) was so scary though, she didn't even have to show her teeth like the rest to be intimidating.

enjoyed it. fun 2 watch, showed sportswear-y stuff being used in activity more physical than just walking

still prefer more conventional runway shows tho

>>6996151
It's definitely a lot more effective in motion than it was in stills. I think that ties in well with what seems to be Rick's vision lately, 'clothing in motion', rather than the monolithic stoicism of his earlier work. He seems to going after more practical cuts that play off the movement of the body rather than obscure it, so in that sense it's only natural that he would opt out of the traditional walking models to show off this collection. He wants people to see it move.

>>6996522
yea rick's timing was rly good ive been feelin a sort of athletic direction l8ly and this was a direction i didnt expect (for athleticism, makes total sense for rick)
i like the bare legs a lot, rly sporty w/o being sexual, especially the way he seemed to layer all the miniskirts with shorts or do them as rompers
thats rly appealing

i guess i dont like step dancing because i cringed through the whole thing espicially at their faces and the stomping away and leaning their head to the side at the end

>>6996151
>the girls are beautiful

>>6996518
You said it was gimmicky on your tumblr.

>>6996151
are there any pictures of attractive people wearing these clothes?

twerk it is tumblr in the human form of course he will love it

twerk has no deep thoughts just follows everything his followers reblog

polite sage

>>6996159
>a celebration of body and shape and colour
why does everyone assume that this was the purpose he just said he wanted a theme of competition and fierceness and the dance style happens to be mainly consisted of black participants

>>6997393
so off point its not evn funny

hey, does anyone know how to download a youtube video? like the video, i want to make a remix but im shit with computers

i know how to use media player to add sounds to the edited video just need to know how to grab the video

>>6997420

how is it off point?

twerk it is tumblr

>>6997416

I agree with this. If he could only find white steppers or only Asian steppers or only Hispanic steppers, I think he would've just gone with that. Also, I think it's hilarious all the posts that people have posted about how he's exploiting them, even if it's with good intentions, e.g. how he's going to have a windfall profit because of this. Black college students aren't going to start suddenly buying $3k jackets (anymore than they already do if they're rich or like following fashion-buzzy musicians or whatever). There's a lot of hysteria over this collection.

I think it's a dude who likes having fun with clothes having fun with clothes.

>>6997439

ur so far off point and racist!

so mad

>>6997526
can you articulate why you think the show was poor and the clothing was mediocre?

It is unfortunate that one, if not hte sole show featuring black people had to be about one where the black people in it were shown as the cliched FAT BLACK WOMAN SCREAMIN that is so preponderant in the american psyche. Which is easily explained by the fact Rick is american and has his psyche entrailed by those images, pictues, depictions of the black ethnie. No, it truly is unfortunate that would have been a consecration of movement, fun and liberalism ended up mixed with that image. Truly unfortunate. But as I've said, RIck is aa wasp afterall. Wasp can't help but show latent racism, even if they aren't aware nor actually wants to do so.

>>6997560
lmao

>>6997556
dont even waste ur time replying to them m8 their opinion is based on like <1 year of being "interested" in "fashion"

>>6997560
rick owens is a catholic raised, atheist mestizo and even though google turned up nothing i refuse to believe that this post isn't copy pasted.

>>6997560
looks like someone doesn't know about step dancing culture

>>6997556
It is a fact, a statistic that black amurican are poor. Nothing controversial about saying this. It is, but the poor sad state of affair of the afro-american. Therefore, a show featuring exclusively that race (usa loves that word) is by extensio poor as well. So yeah, show was poor as fck. Dun't be dumb twerk.

Clothing were mediocre cos they dun't stand the comparison to this season clothes. Dem boots. Dem furs. Dun't be dumb. Those wedged boots are like the best shoes i've eva seen. Top 10.

rich and poor and the type of things that make fashion so boring

fashion shows have never been about the clothing.

>>6997626
A rich white man payin scraps for usin black women and humiliatin them. Had it been before our times, it'd be called a lot differently. Da white man still puttin my black brothas down.

this isn't what normal women look like

i'm sorry for fapping to the women in the show
you will never be used again by me like this

>>6997666
Unfortunately, normality is not a constant in nature.

>>6996292

Is that his mom?

>>6997626
>fashion shows have never been about the clothing

I think this is a REALLY good point. We're ages past the age of slow, stately defilés with models holding cards and press/buyers taking notes and placing orders then and there.

The fashion show as it exists now is now not just about product (though that is still its ostensible purpose), but also about image, visibility, performance, and so much more. It's not surprising how many smaller, contemporary brands opt for presentations or just showroom appointments or why Alaïa has just opted out of the calendar altogether.

>>6997748
yes
its such a cute pic omg
idk where i have it but the pic of him sitting down for some cake has her in it too

>>6997606
She was just being herself, it you think thats racist, you're racist. Minorities don't like people like you that feel pity for them.

>>6997757
AMI did a better show with his last collection than RIck. And one is a renowned deisgner while the other is nothing more than a little designer who worked under renowned one.

>>6997771

I think it's obvious that using the same standard to judge two radically different designers is just silly.

>>6997098
what the fuck is food grade metal?

>>6997783
Indeed, Rick should be so much better than that little dude.

>>6997666
they don't have to be. It's just funny because whenever you select certain people for their physical traits in order to emphasize a certain image as a designer you're liable to be criticized for exploitation. Could be thin white women, or stout black women.

I'm more a streetwear guy, but this shit was cool as fuck. I've never seen anything like this before, I might start looking into "Real" fashion

>>6997829
no matter what kind of woman is on the catwalk, there will be people to criticize the ones responsible for the show

>>6997003
it was gimmicky

rick's last two shows have been gimmicky

i still liked them tho

>>6997478
>so mad he reported all my posts

oh wow

>>6998265
i'm going to kill you

>>6998285

For me, I like the show because it emphasizes the point that Rick's clothes, for all their extravagance and outlandishness, are still clothes that move and work and allow you to actually live your life. The following is from an interview with 032c:

>"I was always irritated that radical fashion was just for the shows, and when designers would present women as decorated parade floats going down the runway, then show up in the end to bow wearing jeans and a T-shirt. These designers wouldn’t commit themselves to their own aesthetic, and I’m irritated every time I see it. They make a proposal, but they imply that it’s impossible for it to really happen."

For me, the shock of the stepping and the snarls and attitude are secondary to the fact that these girls could do any of it in the clothes in the first place. What's the point of looking great if you have to stand still like a statue and can't actually do anything? For all the bravado and theatrics, at the end of the day, these are clothes that you can wear and proof positive that clothing can help you be the person you want to be.

>>6998326
y?

>>6998377
thanks for writing that out. i've never heard of 032c, it looks interesting. can you write a page on the sticky for books, magazines, and other fashion resources?

>>6998377
good quote. rick has a mastery over his craft and the trade.

>>6998407

>>6998377
doesn't rick know authenticity is fucking trite?

>>6998427
he's not authentic. he's genuine.

>>6998215
He has a website. Fck ya. Plus the aesthetic he goes for is not really what is liked on /fa/

>>6998447
what's the difference? am i missing some nuance?

>>6998456
he's misquoting me intentionally. he got beef. i'm just teasing him.

http://fuuka.warosu.org/fa/thread/S6627568#p6627787

>>6997771
Why do you think that?

>>6998466
Personal opinion. Dey are worthless. Why do you want to read about something worthless? (It's called a syllogism btw look it up bruh)

>>6998427

I personally don't think there's anything wrong with affectation or posturing or fantasy. Many people look to fashion for an idealized form, for the chance to become something different, something new. And that is absolutely, one hundred percent fine. That's a completely legitimate expectation for fashion. The duo at Meadham Kirchhoff use fashion as a lens to revisit and re-imagine history, Victoria Bartlett at VPL designs clothes that impose a futuristic (and sometimes unrealistic) order on her models, and Iris Van Herpen uses the wide berth allowed a couturier to make clothes that explore new perspectives on beauty in a world that sometimes sorely lacks any. But these designers understand that their clothes are not for everybody and that they are after a specific person and that, often times, their pieces are thought experiments more than actual clothing.

>>6996357

seriously dude

>>6998475
because i'm killing time until darkside come onto boiler room?

nah bruh i just wanna hear why you thought Ami's show was good/better than rick's, I mean i liked both and i want to find out why you feel so strongly

>>6998407
do you want him to wipe your ass too

>>6998494
I really like the whole "waiting in an airport lounge" scene he depicted. It felt authentic, living and just very well-done. I particularly like the way every models had his own story, stories who could intertwine. And despite all of that, it didn't forget his place, as afterall it was a fashion show and succeeded at showing the collection. It struck a good balance between the show and the fashion. Meanwhile the RO show was 20 fat dancers who did a shitty choreography, wore ill-fitting clothes (because they were fat) and had not much going on for it besides the name of the brand carrying them. You can def draw a parallel between the show as both of them tried to portray Life. A scene of life for AMI, men waiting for their plane to come, men waiting for someone to arrive at their destination, men working there. Meanwhile, it was much more primal for Rick but that's all it was. It even forgot to show us the clothes. And fascist and the others can talk all they want, but it is not a show, it is a fashion show. Forgetting it is a fault. As a show it was good, but in the end, as a fashion show it was ultimately faulty.

So yeah, they both had the same exercice to realize and show to the world and AMI did it ina much better way.

>>6998545
whats all this i keep hearing about the clothes fitting poorly

>>6998550
go away twerk. Had it not been Rick doing it, but some no-name cunt you would have trashed the fits.

>Implying fat people can wear tight clothes and not look laughably bad

Be a bit objective here.

>>6998564
there's plenty of things to be critical of in regards to rick and there's plenty of designers that i love who are not rick. your post isn't an argument, and it doesn't have a point, it really doesn't say much of anything and it certainly doesn't answer the question in regards to the fitting of the clothing.

>>6998545
i dunno i feel like maybe we differ here, I think runway/lookbook shows or whatever don't really need to be shows of the actual clothes anymore, what with the proliferation of websites and other media (along with brick and mortar shops as always) where you can see what the clothes look like on a hanger - I feel that shows now can be (I originally typed 'need' to be but corrected myself) another... extension of a brand, so the performance acts in a similar to haute couture shows, in that it's not what everyone's going to be doing while wearing the clothes, but it gives an aura, and adds value to the brand or whatever.

This is pretty incoherent but whatever.

>>6998545

The storyteller par excellence in my book really is Umit Benan, which isn't to say that Mattuissi isn't good at what he does. He makes clothes for guys who like fine things, but would never be accused of being a snob, which is a pretty hard balance; luxury against insouciance. But these are different guys (girls) and they live different lives. I know there are guys who like being in an airport/at the DMV/waiting for a bus in a tailored pant, but I think there are also guys who approach travel in a different way.

I just don't understand why one has to be "better" for you. They aren't the same customer, so why should the shows be the same?

>>6998583
no, you've got it. a show that actually focused on the clothing entirely would be pretty dull and wouldn't generate a lot of interest. the runway is for pageantry

>>6998584
Benan is underrated/not mentioned enough on /fa/

>>6998602
yeah pretty much, the parallel that immediately sprung to mind for me was Thom Browne - the runway costumery doesn;t really have a whole lot of bearing on the suits he ends up releasing, but if he just did a(nother) show of grey flannel suits that'd be pretty dull.

My womens gender studies class just watched this today. we discussed it for about an hour.

>>6996179
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxdatyeis1I

>>6998582
It did tho. I answered you. That you feel I did not address your points does not change the fact I did.

>>6998602
Who said anything about fashion shows having to be exclusively about the clothes. It would not be a show then. But anyways, Rick chew on bigger than him. He is not a choreographer. Only an handful of people can do that.

>>6998584
I didn't say their fashion show had to be the same.

>I swear, this is fitting the model we are using

forgot pic

Seriously, my little brother with his dance classes do better show than what was shown there.

>It fits, you just can not see it

>Forgot pic again

>>6998621
some of his crazy womenswear ends up on fierce women in the industry, though, and a lot of that stuff finds its way into campaigns, which drives sales. it's not all fantasy.

>>6998660
>I answered you.

no, you responded to me.

>He is not a choreographer.

he didn't choreograph it. what point are you even trying to make now?

>>6998661
the fitting of this dress is just fine.

when i saw photos of it i thought it was just a stupid gimmick. now that i've watched the whole thing i love it !

>I swear to god the clothes are fitting our models

>>6998683
Still his decision, still his responsability.

>>6998683
If you take it that way twerk.

>>6998679
>>6998689
no puckered seaming or pulling fabric. the fit is accurate from a technical perspective. apparently you have a subjective problem with it, but you're nearly an adult now and it's time to learn that no one cares about opinions if you can't critically substantiate them.

>Pulled fabric? Nah, that's just your subjectivity taking over

>>6998719
Dang that's a big hole

Twerk just got told

>>6998719
You ar just ignorant as fuck and most likely just racist.
That is top of the line tailored clothing taking a big dick via an overly aggressive performance.
You can't get any better then that.
That is Rick showing off his craftmanship to all other the pleb designes which clothing rips just by the sudden lift of your arms.

To people who are saying the fit is perfect; it's not.

To people who are saying that's a huge problem and shows that the show was a disaster; I can't imagine how much work it was (given that the Rick Owens in house design team is, like, three people) to prepare samples for thirty-nine women in a short period of time and given the restraints of time and manpower, it's pretty remarkable that the fit is as good as it is.

Both positions are silly and don't take into account the realities of a runway show.

>>6996244

are you going to school/studying anything twerk

>>6996480
i kno right. looked almost like some kinda self-aware irony to me, but the sad fact is that rick probably thought this all looked rly good haha. those new sneakers look fuckin awful aswell; could literally see the material shake and deform on their feet.

>>6996151

Not impressed.

The look is aight, and I understand the interest in both creating a show and showing that the clothes hold up even when worn by fat chicks do crazy movements, but really, it was bland.

The show was the only thing that provided life to this, the garments didn't speak on their own.

Seriously, it was just bland. None of the garments stuck with me, impressed me or even caught my interest.


Meh, only 10/10s I can think of must be Gareth pugh Fall'11 rtw, Hermès Spring'11 rtw and Balmain's whole Fall '13 lineup. Nut that's me.

>>6996357

But the show focused more on showing off fat black bitches dance than the clothing; it ended up feeling like the designer wanted to do a fake "celebration" of the women than actually showing off his craftmanship.

I just didn't feel it, and I personally hate it when too much of the focus is removed from the clothes.

It's like CGI trailers for videogames; it looks nice and all but it's not really what I'm looking for. I follow fashion for clothes, not all the other bullshit.

If you can't let the clothes speak for themselves then it just feels wrong.

>the garments didn't speak on their own.

there was plenty of brilliant work in this collection. look at the way that he blended the collar into the bust dart here. that paneling is so sensical, it's pretty brilliant. it's not on the level of collections like crust, anthem, mountain, or plinth, but it's hardly weak and that comment makes me question how thoroughly you've digested this.

>fat
>black

can i ask you why you chose to highlight this?

>>6999116
>it ended up feeling like the designer wanted to do a fake "celebration" of the women
ur dumb

>those new sneakers look fuckin awful aswell; could literally see the material shake and deform on their feet.

I thought so, to, but then poet unpacked it one time in a post. Very loosely paraphrasing:

Rick's said the collaboration and design came about because as he's getting older, he's having to start doing cardio/running to stay healthy, instead of just lifting. So, running shoes.

Problem is, what Rick likes in sneakers - big, heavy, clunky sole - and what's good in running shoes - light, flexible - are at odds. So what does he do? Splits that thick, clunky sole in two, leaving no sole where the foot needs to bend, both working functionally and playing off both clunky soles and the rippled-up running soles we see a lot today.

Not my personal cup of tea, but then the only Rick sneakers I really love are Geobaskets, a little, just because they're so well executed, and Island Dunks, a lot.

Anyway, yeah, the Rickdidas? I don't like them, but I can really dig the cleverness and brilliance of them as design objects.

And the show? Perfect Rick, maximum Rick. There was a line in the Tim Blanks review where he talked about the show embodying a "gentle notion... with a sledgehammer force," and I can't think of a better summary of Rick's aesthetic generally. And I liked the clothes, better than some of his recent collections.

And to be clear, I'm not paraphrasing poet at all anymore after "we see a lot today." That's all my opinions.

>It's like CGI trailers for videogames
How?

>>6998679
is that a nxtlvl fanny pack?

>>6999772
Yes; it's a specialty of Rick's. Here's a denim one.

>>6999116
this whole idea of "letting the clothes speak on their own" by having tall, skinny white women walk down with a stupid looking scowl and dumb waddle is a preposterous lie. its just as distracting, if not more so because it keeps fashion bland and all about glamour and bullshit. runways just serve to get plebs interested in big houses so that they'll buy their perfumes and bags and shit at the mall. that's not what rick is about. i guess he's tired of pandering to buyers. he can make it on his own anyways.

runway shows shouldnt even be considered important, the whole idea of fashion week is just catered towards making money and keeping the designer from having true creativity. i think yohji said nowadays its 99% about selling out, and 1% about having actual creativity and freedom to design. and look at yohji's recent shows, as well as his daughter. they're terrible. now look at yohji 20, 30 years ago and he was brilliant.

but you fags continue to eat up this fashion week shit because its a media spectacle, with journalists praising designers so they can get free shit from them.

>>6998689
did you actually watch the video of the show? if not then shut the fuck up. they all look fine. and if it didnt fit, rick would probably make even more of a nice statement. so i don't know what your angle is.

>>6996213
i said the exact same thing and user timber and turnleft all got mad at me

lol

>>6999891
user didn't m8
just timber/turnleft

don't pull him into it

>>6997648
humiliating? most of them were in tears of joy and happiness. it's probably going to be one of the most memorable moments of their lives. and they rocked, everyone including people with no interest in fashion saw it. rick doesnt openly advertise, this is like eazy-e invited to the white house.

he made a daring risk. it's because nobody takes risks in the fashion industry that your "black brothas" cant get jobs as designers or models. you should be thanking rick, faggot.

rick said it himself "“It’s such an American phenomenon,” Owens said backstage after the show. “I was attracted to how gritty it was, it was such a fuck-you to conventional beauty. They were saying, 'We’re beautiful in our own way."

He would be an idiot if he didn't take into account this aspect of his show. People shouldn't dismiss the fact that they're fat, but embrace it as a changing sign of the times and social progress. /fa/ has some of the most closed minded people i've ever met, just like in actual fashion. sadly it attracts that type of person the way bodybuilding attracts a lot of people who just need to overcompensate.

Sumo wrestlers are unhealthy bro... Their diet consists of nearly nothing but sake and red meat. Have you never looked up the average life expectancy of a professional sumo wrestler?

>>6999987
They don't like the show because the models were all black as a desperate cry for attention when the clothes in the default environment wouldn't have gained much.

>>6996251
"The negative health effects of the sumo lifestyle can become apparent later in life. Sumo wrestlers have a life expectancy of between 60 and 65, more than 10 years shorter than the average Japanese male. Many develop diabetes, high blood pressure, and are prone to heart attacks. The excessive intake of alcohol can lead to liver problems and the stress on their joints can cause arthritis."

>>6996238
Maybe he wanted to challenge himself or challenge his beliefs? Intelligent people do it all the time.

>>6996238
What makes you think those women don't work out anon?

Being fit is a journey, not a destination.

Source?

I watch sumo regularly and the men are very healthy looking aside from the large size. Sumo is an athletic sport, I think most sumo eat fairly healthy because they need to be in good form to perform the kimarite. Sumo isn't all about size.

>>7000113
m8 u r gonna be unhealthy at 400lb no matter your diet or how much you exercise

>>7000059
