I really like Moschino Cheap & Chic’s fall 2009 collection, but the show didn’t blow me away like some of the label’s past. The sheer tops and dresses are so tricky to do, but I am in love with those pieces in this collection. The ruffles and bows brought out my girly fashion sense without overloading me with sugary sweetness; dark heavy fabrics made these design elements conflicting in a way that couldn’t make them fit together more perfectly. I’m disappointed in some of the silhouettes. The boxiness of many pieces took away from the really cool fabrics they were constructed from. But regardless, the collection flowed well and made sense aesthetically.
