There’s one good way to breakdown the makeup of Marios Schwab’s spring 09 collection and that’s by talking about the good, the bad and the ugly. Let’s start with the good, shall we?
I adore these mini dressed he did in schizophrenic colors and asymmetrical shapes. They are super playful, and many of them can be worn during night or day. I like the punked-out pieces as well, designed with strategically placed rips and safety pins.
We saw some adorable dresses, but we must move on to whatever the hell this outfit is supposed to be. It looks like something a very matronly Judy Jetson would wear to a funeral. This 2-piece pantsuit is so drab, it makes me want to open my umbrella. I’m sorry Schwab, but many of the pieces your pieces this season were frumpy with ill-placed ruffles and awkward hems. Stick to the skin-tight dress, and you’ll be golden.
I really like Elmo, and I think the killing of his entire lineage for this ugly coat was rude and uncalled for. FAIL.
