This weekend, we felt it for the first time: annoyance at the latex leggings trend that is taking the fashion folk by storm. How long will it be before we can barely stand the sight of two bound, shiny legs stomping down the subway stairs? Not long ladies, not long. We give it until Halloween. Latex might be sustainable but that doesn't mean this trend is.
What will turn out to be one of the star collections from this Spring 09 season was the collection by Hussein Chayalan which showed last night in Paris. It was a fun and upbeat offering and called up a discussion on pace and the speed at which our culture now moves. Accessible pieces came down the runway (albeit with couture-appropriate head pieces), like neutral color mini dresses and striped chiffon cover-ups, but the show ended with latex-formed frocks which appeared as though there were a dimensional lag behind the wearer. The hair called up visions of the Calvin Klein Fall 08 ad campaign and mimicked the shape of the dresses we would see on other models.
