I was working with a dealer in New York who would send me images of sarcophaguses that were up for auction.

Not invariably but mostly, their silhouettes were like bowties: out and wide at the shoulder and ankle and cinched inwards at the middle. As Owens observed from between his mega-brimmed baseball cap backstage, even portlier people could work the look—those pants sat high to create a center-point at the base of the sternum, north of the paunch. And then came that bang: also every eight seconds or so, fireworks would detonate from one of six towering rigs set in the Palais de Tokyo pool and fill the space with swirls of purple and yellow smoke. The smell of cordite was in the air. Ash rained down. The scene seemed simultaneously apocalyptic and ecstatic, some gothic Pompeii, fiddling while Rome burns. Owens played it straight from beneath that brim backstage.

Like all of us, when Rick Owens catches a flight he is obliged to transit through airport retail. This does not sit right with him. For Owens this experience epitomizes contemporary mass luxury and what he observes as an intolerance of difference that is the result of its function to sell a dream of sameness—a standard. And when I wear my platform boots as I go through the airport it is to oppose airport beauty. This is my resistance. Not unlike laughing at a bully, deploying absurdity is one of the most potent ways to subvert enforced conformity. Which leads us to why Owens opened his house in Paris for his menswear show this morning. And that was my basic urge this season: to be sincere. The collection was entitled Porterville, after the California town in which he was raised. A force of anti-intolerance. Owens honored creative collectivism today by inviting multiple collaborators to share his platform s. The fantastically insectoid inflatable rubber boots that puckered and popped as the models walked in them were by London based designer Straytukay which is also his handle. Challenging to manufacture but fantastic to watch were the jackets and pants made by rubber couturier Matisse Di Maggio.

My father had a library in the basement full of Japanese art books. Trending video.

That might be overstating things, but the opening looks did feel unexpected. Yes, the models wore contacts that turned the whites of their eyes black, but beyond the otherworldly special effects were three of the most elegant looks seen on the Paris runways this season. Fitted close to the body and perched on top of impossibly high platform sandal-boots, they had the look of s screen goddesses on steroids. It feels strange to use this word in the context of Rick Owens, but they were downright pretty. The deep reds and mauve-ish pinks kept the positive vibes flowing. Flowing is the right word for the silk capes that he designed with rounded hems to catch the wind and billow like parachutes. They were a sensational sight as the models made their slow perambulations around the Palais de Tokyo plaza.
