The Belgian design house, always manages to deliver a conceptual collection that leaves you with a strong opinion one way or another.
Not always wearable (who can forget last seasons cardboard cut-out take on masculine vs feminine?), the clothes always make an impact along with a highly entertaining and thought provoking show.
This season however left me feeling somewhat disappointed.
Based around the concept of a single dress, the models appeared with dresses, un-zipped to the waist to reveal the garments lying underneath.
A great concept, yet all too often the clothes looked just way to bulky, and swamped the models slight frame.
It is almost impossible to see the detailing underneath the red coat in this outfit. It's almost as if the stylists were competing to see just how many garments could be forced on a single girl.
The ubiquitous deconstruction was once again showcased by MMM. Normally a masterclass in how to chop and change garments - this coat looks to me almost amateur - as if a design student had been let loose with a pair of scissors.
My favourite look in collection however has to be this camel maxi skirt complete with long black leather gloves.
I also love this pink sleeveless dress, however once again think that less would defiantly have been more when it came to the styling ( I am not a fan of the wrinkly pantyhose boots)- it really distracts from the exquisite garment.
All in all I feel that whilst this a good collection with some nice pieces, it doesn't have the usual MMM wow factor that leaves you discussing the collection for days afterwards.
What did you think of the collection?
