    This is such an amazing series. Inviting the industry’s most prolific and legendary editors and letting them break down all the iconic shows that really changed fashion in detailed and well articulated commentaries, it doesn’t get better than that. Also it amazes me how Tim has a great memory of the past and knows every model, every reference, and basically just everything about these shows.

    High fashion is long dead. Creativity was the order of the day with couture. Now fashion is mass market , created only for a quick buck. Elegance, quality and unbelievable beauty are but a distant memory in the fashion industry.

    Big up to Tim Blanks for talking about being lit while at shows. And for still being obsessed with his favorite supermodel Lina Evangelista. The way he says her name kills me!! Thank God there are others out there that love fashion as much as i do!!!!

      Me too. I worked with him over 30 years ago. He is exactly who you see. An intelligent, informed member of the fashion press. It has been a joy to see him make a place for himself in the fashion and contribute to a greater understanding of the industry. I loved those 90's shows as well.

    Absolute. Natively, JPG S/S '94 was the spearhead of the 20th centurion's contempo~ -tribe~melli-craftwear. And intriguely, Dries van Noten's S/S was also on the other incredible maidens' era ..with loads of models streaming gradually from the fortress, while the supreme Galiano's §CDior's§ was the ultimate Nefettitii's haute-couture.[ my flashback, notably; 30 yrs ago!] Me`moir❤

    This has been a great series. It would be nice to see someone like Tim lead a panel or two now and again. I hope they have Andre Leon Talley on as well. Experience gives you awareness. Experience gives one a reference point for what is sublime, and what is inferior. Tim, Suzy, Leon, and even Cathy Horyn represent a generation of fashion critics and style makers who had opinions, and appreciated real creativity. Now we have Liza Koshy on the red carpet at the Met Gala. I just can't get engaged with the fashion world right now. I do have fond memories though.

    Back in September, when I skipped a pattern cutting class to wait outside fashion shows, the people I was the most excited to see were not celebs but Tim, Suzie, Grace Coddington, Jo Ellison, Vanessa Friedman, Robin Givhan, Elizabeth von Guttman, Christiane Arp, Lucinda Chambers, Carine Roitfeld, Anna Wintour, Emmanuelle Alt ... People with experience who have an understanding and a knowledge of the industry as a culture and a business. More and more I realize that clothes are words, so first, I just want to listen.

      yassir chakir I agree. John fired from Dior, McQueen’s untimely death and Marc Jacobs leaving Vuitton all felt like swan songs to me. Fashion truly changed after that. Those few years felt really pivotal.
