Maybe it’s just me but unlike the praises of many fashion critics, I wasn’t particularly fond of Marc Jacob’s Fall 2010 collection. After watching a video of the show I couldn’t help but feel a bit dissatisfied with what I was witnessing. I will admit that the show itself was beautifully put together. Playing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” was indeed a nice touch. Good Job! But it’s a little manipulating to believe that the surreal state I was put in would be enough for me to disregard what the models were wearing. I love Marc Jacobs but his new collection is simply too familiar. I want to see something new and fresh, not last years Fall collection – just in different colors. Style.com interviewed Jacobs after his show; "There's so much striving for newness now that newness feels less new," he said. Okay, I absolutely understand how attempting to transform your line completely isn’t the wisest decision. But really? No change at all? Come on Marc, I KNOW you can do better! Maybe I’m expecting too much from him but is that honestly wrong of me? I can only hope that next season he will take more of a risk.
This is very good. I like your tone and the substance of what you're saying. Maybe a few more details about the ways in which it was the same as the fall collection. Details are key to this kind of writing. Also, maybe on link to another reivew of the show, either agreeing or disagreeing with you. All in all, though, very good.
