I was prepared to move on and speak about London Fashion Week only and then bam! I remembered there was much more than Marc by MarcJacobs: I hadn’t said a word about Ralph Lauren’s Fall Winter 2012 2013 collection! And I truly wanted to! Because though it was just a single collection, it in fact looked like two distinct collections on that runway! A single collection that was quite Downtown Abbey, as reported by style dot com: plaids, sweaters, high knee socks and cute tiny hats and 1 other collection that was really glam and Red Carpet inclined.
As I’m confident Ralph Lauren tried to give his best interpretation of the season’s trends, but he ended up torn in between glamour and English suit charm. And although the collection in its entirety was pretty, charming and truly wearable, I felt it lacked cohesion and coherence. But that’s ok by fashion standards, it’s called diversity. Inspiration. Vision. Is not it?
