## Tadashi Shoji New York RTW Fall

I don't know what I expected when I went into this show, but...it was not this.

Just to get it out of the way, but I really hated the hair here. Admittedly, I am a very basic hair bitch: I want glossy, bouncy, shiny shampoo commercial hair on everyone. But I realize that doesn't work for every show -- you're not going to see that at Alexander Wang. But this just feels like a weird mix of brand and look.

Maybe Jaimie Alexander can just wear this on Blindspot when she is like REAL far in the background?

This is where someone came into the workroom is was like, "DUDE. You have to make something that Neiman Marcus will actually buy!"

"Here you go, Neiman Marcus." (Neiman's is like, "thank you. We DID need a little dress people could wear to weddings, in black and white.")

Styled differently, I actually think this could be red carpet ready.

This feels very Naeem Khan to me.

As sheers go, I don't mind this. But I did think, "did no one get the memo that sheers are over?" NO ONE wore them to the Globes; I think their era is coming to a close.

This is quite pretty, and might work on, say, a Kruger.

It's a compliment when I say that I would LOVE this pattern on beach towels.

I keep thinking of Shoji regular Octavia Spencer flipping through this and muttering, "come on, dude."

Amy Adams?

This also feels like Naeem Khan.

A little prom, perhaps, for this brand?

I could see this on Viola Davis at a photo call, being quite striking.

What about for, say...Joanne Froggatt?

None of this feels as luxe and intricate as their previous lines, which is disappointing.

This totally feels like a ploy for the young, rich, party girl.

I am so distracted by this hair!

Chop this off at the thigh and we're in GOOD SHAPE.

I'd love this without the turtleneck.

Don't get mad, Tadashi, but what about for Britney? I'm totally sincere. She'd look cute in this.

This could work on someone young and stylish -- Keke Palmer?

Kate Hudson?

J. LO.

This might appeal to the actress who likes that kind of slouchy nightgown look. I probably won't like it on her, whoever she is, but I can see someone pulling it.

"Dude, we need some normal formal gowns! The show is tomorrow!"

I like this, but it feels very Versace.

And I like this, and it feels very Armani. So...I'm not sure what's happening over at Shoji right now, but if you need a catsuit, they can help?

[High Fushion: Tadashi Shoji, Fall/Winter 2016I traditionally really like Tadashi Shoji, but I'm not sure this was their most successful collection. For one thing, I found the styling unappealing -- no one looks good with greasy hair, not really -- but I was also alarmed when I saw the run of show waxing so poetic about "tribal" influences, because that NEVER ends well, and here it seems to have translated to Full Body Henna Tattoo Catsuit, which....???????? To me, Shoji's client has always seemed like a slightly older, elegant, professional woman who occasionally has need of a bitchin' cape. I can't tell if this collection represents an attempt to capture a younger audience, but if so, my question is...why? I know (do I ever) that youth is prized above all in American culture, but your slightly older, elegant professional woman HAS ALL THE MONEY. \[Photos: Tadashi Shoji\]![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2016/02/tsh_lb_fw16_001.jpg)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/high-fushion-tadashi-shoji-fallwinter-2016-02-2016/)
