Let's have a rundown of some highlights and low-lights from a couple shows. This post is dedicated to the Giorgio Armani Prive show.
I picked up on a futuristic theme with a slight Eastern/Oriental influence. There is definitely a lot of detail in this collection, and I'm not sure how much of that is a positive thing.
Highlights:

I love the femininity of this look! It's very chic without looking overworked. And I absolutely love the fabrics used here and the shape of the skirt! However, I'm not sure how I feel about the tassels on the bow or the wingtips on the shoulders.

Okay, I don't know exactly what I like about this dress, but there's something about it that just holds my attention. I'm not a fan of the shimmery material, but the shape of this dress and the details are magnificent! It's obviously not something meant to be actually worn, otherwise it would be in the Ready to Wear shows, but it's just so intriguing! And looking at the dress, I forget all about that atrocious hair!

Stunning! Absolutely stunning! It's just a very clean dress with amazing details. I love the serpentine floral embellishment. It's incredible. I am just in love.
Low-Lights:

I don't even know where to start. The winged tips, the shininess, the shape of that skirt. It's just so...out there! Yes, it's futuristic, but this is just insane! The top is so structured but the skirt is just floppy and there. And I hate the fabrics used here.

Okay, this is such a matronly looking outfit. It's actually making the model look a bit shapeless and frumpy. And again with all the wingtips! The bottom hem of the top, the shoulders, even the hem of the pants! It's too much!

I can't even get over what the is on the model's head to pay attention to the actual clothes here! It's just so distracting!
So overall, I found this collection to go two completely opposite directions at once. It's crazily out there in space at some points, but then it gets all matronly and old-fashioned at other points. And sometimes, both are combined into the same outfit and you're just confused! However, I truly appreciated all the details put into this collection. I think the intense attention to details may have saved this collection from getting too wacky!
What do you think? Anything from the Armani Prive Collection you would like to have in either your own closet or your Diva Chix wardrobe? Speak your mind in the comments!
