text: Rick Owens’Wow, I didn’t think Rick Owens could make those shoes higher,’ a veteran show-goer was overheard to say, as models stomped down a catwalk swirling in dry ice. This collection was Rick Extra. In his show notes, Owens spoke about the balance between behaviour, performance and the urge to perform more and behave less as he gets older – hence the supersize platform heels, one-legged unitards and sharply shouldered tailored coats and jackets. Side note: movement and performance are as much a catwalk trend this season as stompy boots and the colour blue.
