[@Mudkipz123]

ohi, I saw you here

[@understitchYT]

When I was at university they had me analyse the whole scan/screen print thing and I loved it at first, super interesting to see the trompe l’œil being used that way. And in the Barbican they had several of the pieces so I got to go and see them and Gaultier’s trompe l’œil too 🥰

[@MS-bv9zs]

Glad to see the retrospective all rise, was wondering why we didn't stand up as you were explaining the design.

[@michelles9897]

Love your videos, thank you.

[@noufmohammed4061]

I love your video ❤️❤️

[@finn.urbanbias1675]

Paco Robanne FW22 Fall/Winter review please Bliss! Give me this one 😂

[@fedorpliskin3026]

Did you get the idea of doing the silent plug at the end from watching the rock scene in Everything Everywhere All at Once ?

[@BlissFoster]

Haha maybe subconsciously. I cried during that scene. That movie was nuts

[@leanderwhite]

You are a boss. 🔥

[@urmomlol3751]

ALL RISE !

[@killerstick1]

were the trompe l'oeil garments screen printed or digital printed? Seems more like it was digital printed

[@sudesconcierto2517]

7:55 a lot of the other clothes also almost have that 'crumpled' texture, like they weren't ironed. that also probably plays into the idea of the memory of the object, like its been worn and therefore wrinkled. (im gonna be completely honest i have not watched all of the margiela series or even close to it so i might completely be missing the mark and if so ill delete the comment bye)

[@user-xf7ny2dw2g]

Love your videos-so insightful. Your tacit knowledge is insane, never ceases to distract me from hwork

[@jmbaug1229]

I'm curious about your opinion on Maison Margiela by Galliano.
Great content 👌🏼

[@liisapiirainen1845]

I'm pretty sure he's made a video about that a while back

[@EddyCroitoru]

He made a whole video about it
SMD.

[@BlissFoster]

I have 💫💫

[@Bei.Incubi.Omnus.]

Lol @6:40

[@mattianapolitano6508]

a question that always bugs me is how should a designer pay tribute to, lets say his previous work, without being labeled as "unoriginal" or worse? i mean, where should someone look while analyzing this kind of collection? where does the line stand between "genius" and "unoriginal/lack of idea kinda guy"? and how much does a maison status and hype (ie rick rn) affects the overall critics outcome in this kind of shows?

[@BlissFoster]

That’s a great question that I’m always wrestling with. The best answer I can give is that it’s different for every designer (I think).

[@graememacinnis7990]

Where can I find the fall 2004 collection video? Struggling to locate it on YT

[@BlissFoster]

Google it, it’s there 💫💫

[@DDF1600]

Idk what that is 🤔

@@BlissFoster it's gucci's latest runway show + collection, don't know if you're all that into gucci & alessandro though

[@2nuts4cars]

My mom told me to apologize, I have a patron budget and every penny goes to a smaller creator with very few followers. I'm sorry for freeloading...

[@innervision97]

Oh bye, I saw you

[@jayphleming5816]

Calling me a freeloader is the surest way to make certain that I never give you a penny. Similarly I consider you a middleman between designers and their public.
