OK, kids. I’m no fashion prude. I’ve worked for my share of fashion magazines (including Vogue) and I like me some disruptors. Thom Browne, Comme des Garçons and Iris van Herpen are favorites. I love crazy runway styling, props, sets, themes and over-the-top-of-the-top. But this latest Gucci Resort Cruise runway show really threw me. The runway appeal for these looks is ZERO. It looks like a 5-minute, thrift store styling challenge on a bad reality TV show, and the winner is the one who can make their model look THE WORST! The women in this show faired a little better, so I focused on the men here to make my point.
But to each his/her own. Throw on any old thing with any old thing. Or better yet spend $1500 on a Gucci sweater and make it look like it costs $29.99. If you like this lunatic asylum chic styling, I say
GO FOR IT, GURL!
