Paris Fashion Week Spring Summer 2010
Who: Gareth Pugh
What it made us think of: Post-apocalyptic detectives
What we liked: The Elizabethan line of the coats (We think Pugh, like us, has a soft spot for Lizzy I), lattice shoes, thumb holes, zips, great shoes
What we didn't: A dickey is not a shirt! The collection felt...commercial.
Who: Rick Owens
What it made us think of: Running around in the rain.
What we liked: Triangular silhouettes, origami folds, killer coats, shoes, dramatic winged eyeliner
What we didn't: Loincloths, sea urchins
Who: Balmain
What it made us think of: Rumble at the military ball.
What we liked: Military jackets (third season for them at Balmain), sexy shoes, studs, shoulders, metallics
What we didn't: The third look pictured below made me recoil in horror. Why is everything so torn?![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSIQ2RBVrEygZPIovxKqz3PKf5aiJzA4_H95Q3AQQ_0Gwvt0t6qJ7NtjkV7_GbVoUCGw8l_dAedFlnBa_PWymLMmkziXyNU9_WakgWl3LQl8aZN_7REbOB2YJdML-0skGjtlABlruHlTHv/s400/Balmain+spring+summer+2010.jpeg)
