Roughing It at Ruffian
By Britt Aboutaleb Friday, Sep 11, 2009 / 9:43 PM
We think Ruffian’s show is always such a hit because, a) everyone loves Claude and Brian, b) the boys know how to cast their models and c) they make cute clothes.
This season, the first two held true while the last one fell a bit short.
Their “Les Demoiselles de Ruffian” collection for Spring 2010 was a little bit Louis Vuitton AW09 – watered down – with a dash of military mixed in. There was layered lace, sheer swiss dot blouses and ruched ruffles at the neck, collar, anywhere. Coats featured tails and gold buttons and the last few looks featured that brightly colored Picasso inspired print.
Meanwhile, the hair and make-up were amazing. The girls—Iekeliene, Irina L., Eniko, Liu, Arlenis—positively glowed. And their colorful, slighty rock n’ roll eyes were balanced by soft pulled up hair.
Otherwise, it could’ve been the weather, but the mood on the way out of Exit Art was pretty gloomy.

My first impression when I saw this collection was “why are these people fashion designers?” This collection is really, really bad and uninspired. It may sound harsh, but I think it is the worst I have seen so far this week and I really think they should look for another career. This is something I would expect from a celebrity fashion designer, NOT from a legitimate design team, no matter how indie they are. They don’t deserve to show at fashion week.
Love that black dress with the dots, but its probably more because of Jules than the dress itself…
