I will say it for the rest of my life: no matter what direction he goes in, Manish Arora is a motherfreaking genius.
What do we all love Arora for? The theatrics. The fun. The playful transcendency. All of which are readily available for Spring/Summer 2012. Those, and a wholly intended introduction to slightly less wild, though just as incredible, ready to wear garments. All sharp, futuristic, and significantly witty. If someone can own a dégradé effect of black and white butterfly-wing sequins trailing into a feather-packed midi dress, they deserve abundant praise.
As for his design debut at Paco Rabanne in just a few days? He says “…that’s going to be a show“. Eep!
