Marc Jacobs RTW F/W 2007 in New York Fashion Week

It's really exciting to see all the F/W 2007 shows. This season is an extension of the bold S/S 2007 trend, with subtle femininity under interesting cuts, bold colour, and menswear inspired sexiness. In the midst of excitement, I would like to talk about the disappointment (or maybe not so much so since I really quitted expecting much for him) brought to us by the I-can-design-crap-and-you-will-still-worship-me LVMH golden boy Marc Jacobs. His show reminds me of The Great Gatsby goes fishing meets Tom and Jerry. Yes, I am talking about Tom and Jerry as in the cartoon with the cat and the mouse. His American Dream inspired suits really does remind me of one of Tom's outfit. I don't understand how he can take the same trend and create something that will look completely ridiculous on anyone. The suits are supposed to be some sort of menswear inspired bold power suit, but can you seriously imagine some female CEO wearing that? The hats are supposed to give an elegant polished look but they look more like hat for fishing or farming.

After the American, how about some Italian now? sounds good?

ok...now did MJ borrow John Galliano's personal outfit for his show? This totally looks like something that John Galliano would wear with his hippie's hair. I'd call this menswear gone too far.

finally we do have Paris inspired look too, isn't MJ just so diversed? here it is:

How do you like this 16th century Parisienne Court Pierrot inspired look? If that doesn't look like some French clown, you'd certainly find something like that in a Vegas magic show....
