Emanuel Ungaro Fall/Winter 2011


With a mostly-black colour scheme, Giles Deacon's pieces for Ungaro were sexual and oh so provocative. I loved everything here, and was impressed at how much there was to take in, even though the collection itself was very minimalistic.
Practically everything came in lean cuts, enhanced with incredible Lesage embroideries, including wolf and eagle heads on great biker jackets and sweatshirt, with the collection mainly sticking to a body-con silhouette.

Giles Spring/Summer 2011

For Giles Deacon, bad taste is good and the highest compliment I can think of to pay this collection is that it was in exquisitely bad taste.


With Agyness Deyn opening and supermodel legend Veruschka closing, the show was filled with cartoonish prints, pop-arty colours, over-sized 80's-esque sneakers and his usual zany eyewear.


Consider this the first Giles collection I love!

Giles 2010 Spring/Summer Collection







Debuting on the bottom rung of the Paris schedule after years of being top dog in London didn't faze Giles Deacon one bit. His collection was all cute, sixties-cartoon-ish, neon, pastel, and metallic, and full of delightful prom dresses with tons of playful accessories thrown in. "
Nutty, teenager-ish accessories: "Scooby" sunglasses with pink printed frames, spider and scorpion jewelry, neon pegs and gold-plated bulldog clips to stick in hair and festoon collars—not to mention really silly soft-toy dinosaur bags were delightful. Like so much else this season, Deacon's collection is young, and it has a believable, cheerful personality that should see him holding his own.
