If the men’s fall winter sphinx collection was about anarchy and arcadia, the Rick Owens fw 15 women’s collection shares the same name and same mood with more arcadia and less anarchy. These are draped robes and sculpted wool felts in silhouettes that have a bit of a ceremony-in-the-woods vibe to them flat sandals and socks calm them down.

After studying Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hollyhock House for years, I propose that living up to that kind of interior might look something like this. From what I understand, some of Wright’s motifs of flora traced in angular lines had its roots in mayan culture, as do I on my mother’s side. Maybe now is a good time to start exploring that. Blossom motifs are abstracted into geometric diagrams and embroidered on tunics of prismatically patched monochromatic felts and fur.

Back-fastened shells and mantles have excess fabric cascading down the back for a windblown profile with jutting hips that make me think of the graceful lines of a seahorse. Draped and padded confections have the ease and utility of a cotton duck windbreaker. Draped and twisted shifts come in lightly padded nylon or suede seamed with tufts of wispy, feathery fur.
