I gather from *Vogue* that Olivier Rousteing has a documentary about himself dropping soon on Netflix, [which *Vogue* obligingly used as the peg for its review](https://www.vogue.com/fashion-shows/resort-2022/balmain?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), discussing the collection as it relates to his search for his roots and a sense of identity. That writer is not my favorite, and often I read a designer's influence and think, "... Okay, if you say so," but I will say: You can see some of the influences of his search in the middle of this collection especially. There is something exploratory about it all, but also so random -- there's a caftan, some absurd sleeves, some parkas, some floofy shoes, some structured shoulders, some capris... I'm not sure what customer he is hoping will come on this journey.
