   This one’s my favorite. I love her colors, the gauzy silhouettes, but it is just me or does every single model need a sandwich? The pin stick legs and razor collarbones! They just look awful. I couldn’t get past the emaciation. A little bit of meat, perhaps a calf muscle, would do more justice to these clothes.

   Much better models. I don’t feel like adopting them for 25 cents a day. I love Chaiken’s look…the b&w outfits are sharp, especially with the belted shirt over skirt. Love that belt. But the grecian-wrap dresses look ill-fitting, even on the wafer-thin, the fabric bunches up unflatteringly.

   Am embarrassed that I thought Jil Sanders was a woman. It’s the name. Is Jil the european version of Pat?

   Jil Sander is a woman. She retired from designing, then came back, then sold her company. Raf Simons is now the creative director designer.
