A Björk concert changed Rick Owens’s mood. He left it feeling a bit foolish about his constant gloom, and decided that joy might be a moral obligation. Diana Ross sang on the soundtrack. The Prince of Darkness had found some light.
The first looks were a shock for him: long, close to the body and perched on very high platform sandal boots, like 1930s screen goddesses turned up to the maximum. They were pretty, which is not a word that comes up often here. The models did wear contact lenses that blacked out their eyes completely, so it was still Rick.
The colour was lovely. Deep reds and mauve pinks, and a dusty pink shrunken biker jacket with peaked shoulders over a high-waisted caramel leather skirt with a small train. Silk capes with rounded hems filled with air like parachutes as the models crossed the Palais de Tokyo plaza. The “donuts” from the season before came back in pleated tulle and organza, light as candy floss.
Then the fog turned fuchsia and acid yellow, rose petals fell, and the last five models walked out in loose jumpsuits and sheer veils that looked like hazmat suits. He cannot help himself, and that is why this works. It is optimism from someone who sees the world clearly.
