G-Star, No?
As I watched my favorite brand, G-Star, their NY Fashion Week show online I noticed that they’ve gotten away from their military inspiration and more of a borderline tennis inspiration with some of the dresses. Sometimes, getting away from a niche design in fashion can work in the company’s favor; however, I wasn’t particularly wowed by G-Star’s collection.
I felt that the style has been done before; down to the quilted white pants one of models wore. Everything seemed done by some one else somewhere in fashion history. Which isn’t necessarily a bad thing as many designers steal are inspired by other designers, but I just felt G-Star’s collection was borderline contrived. I mean, one of the major reasons I love G-Star is their military inspired wear – clean, powerful, cool, and hip.
But this is only my opinion.
