RICK OWENS FALL/WINTER 2012


Classically made up models, with their pale faces and red lips were masked by veils resembling ski masks. Rick Owens was moved by brutalism for his latest collection, the style of architecture which flourished from the 1950’s to the mid 1970’s, spawned from the modernist architectural movement. The masks reflected “a brutalist veil” for Owens. And although he escaped back to black this fall he also presented color in this seasons collection, setting off the undertones from the bars of fire emblazoned behind the models. Owens did something to me with those elegant gowns and cropped leather jackets. He closed with an array of checkerboard patterned pieces, those I covet the most. His collection was both enchanting and fascinating, suggesting romantic gothic fantasies.
