The only thing I didn't get about the William Rast show at Fashion Week is the austere look on J. Tim's face as he popped out at the end. If I were him, I'd have run out dancing, as nothing short of amazing stomped, sashayed, and strutted down that runway. Instead of actual pieces, let's talk concepts -- for the girls, there was fringe, studs galore, Midwest meets Margiela shoulder pads, and tight pants that will create waiting lists. For the boys, we can basically say “all of the above,” and add on long T-shirts -- which brought a casual factor to impeccably tailored jackets -- and the most fun black acid-washed jeans. It was a dark, modern interpretation of the height of 80s punk-inspired fashion ... a collection that definitely proved that Tims could carry Billy Rast way past geek chic.
