We already featured Lupita Nyong'o and the Olsens, but the solids didn't stop there. Also, we should discuss that Raf Simons won for both menswear and womenswear -- yes, the same Raf Simons who in my view really nudged Dior's decline from 2012-2015, and took over Calvin Klein (for which he won) in time to turn out more CKs I *don't* like than CKs I do. And indeed, so far as of this writing, I haven't found any major female attendees who even wore it, though I'm sure there was one. So... GREAT. And also kind of weird, no? DISCUSS.
