Who doesn't want to feel like a genius The aptly named Genius collections from luxe outerwear brand Moncler will undoubtedly smarten up your fall wardrobe. The company tapped eight of the fashion industry's most prolific and exceptional designers - including, among others, Valentino's Moncler Outlet Pierpaolo Piccioli, Simone Rocha, and menswear maestro Craig Green - to each create a capsule collection that reflects their distinct aesthetic. For Rocha that meant amping up the femininity on Moncler's signature utilitarian designs by incorporating floral prints, ruffles, and all manner of embellishments.

The result is a line - up of recognizable Rick Owens tropes: the sleeveless tunic, the elongated sleeve - but expressed in Moncler's featherweight volumes of down. Exploding shapes and tumorous proportions in scarves and cropped bolero jackets contrast elegantly with sleek bonded nylon layers and radiance quilted jackets in a palette of matt black, silver and dust. And what of the 'spaceship' that Owens and Lamy used to traverse America's rugged desert landscapes In a prescient move, Rick Owens chose to create a mode of travel in which he and his creative partner and wife, Michele Lamy, could cocoon in.

Reviewing this collection feels changed too: That night last February involved helter - skelter - ing through 10 or so collections in less than one hour - fashion speed dating - which was both fun and efficient but hardly www.monclersoutlets.com conducive to connection. In contrast, speaking with Leoni on Zoom and looking slowly at these look book images - there's no particular rush, as due to some calendar vagary the collection has been on sale since January, so this review is more an exercise in completism - is highly conducive to connection. Even when frustratingly shot in black and white, you can see in silhouette and sensual aesthetic pragmatism echoes of Leoni's previous professional ports of call at Jil Sander and Celine.
