Mood/Style:
the Rick Owens spring/summer collection has a religious touch to it. The collocation of monolithic structures in clerical black of the first models, with the semi-sheer knitwear and the lightly draped jersey, the game of lengths and cuts of the pants and the suggestions given by the use of fabrics with different types of reflections, leave room to an almost monastic rigor. The light shades of sand and earth tones are applied to long tunics or mixed in front of fur togas. The geometries of the triangle, prism, trapezium, the white horizontal and vertical lines are elements of an ancestral alphabet. If compared to the classic Owens glamour and grunge, we see an evolution in the cuts and proportions of the jackets, with low shoulders, long sleeves and wide waists. The obsession of the experimentalist pattern maker is especially obvious in the combination of different fabrics that leave a glimpse of the tailoring lines of the garment. The asymmetry continues to be present like a necessary design element and accompanies a study of transparencies made of nylon and chiffon. The accessories are confirmed as one of the main elements of the collection, with clogs with wood soles combined with knitted leg warmers
