Odelaly! Check out the Fall/Winter collection from Eckhaus Latta! (Entire collection can be viewed here, as well as their complete catalogue).
I really like their experimentation with shapes, architecture, zippers and the various weights and stiffness of materials. The collection feels a bit "all over the place" somehow, but there is still a magic thread pulling them all together like beads on a necklace.
They don't seem to give a crap about trying to appeal to cautious dressers.
Their overcoat that creates massively sloped shoulders is really cool. I am also fascinated with their execution of the dual-toned pattern dress. The way that they have ruched the fabric in the front seam to combine the two patterns is kind-of breathtaking.
I also really like the echo of the lampshade construction in the two parachute dresses and the stiff jacket and pants set with forest pattern.
Lastly, the two padded fencing jacket-esque ensembles with orange piping and florescent floral patterns are just plain awesome and I could see them being standard issue guard-duty uniforms in a futuristic kingdom.
It's awesome that they are totally normal and consistent with casting diverse and gender-fluid ensembles of people to show their collections.
I'll definitely have to pay attention to Eckhaus Latta more often to see what they are up to.
Last time I thought about them before this collection was in 2017, when they debuted a controversial ad campaign featuring couples have real sex (with pixelated blurs).
